I Too Packed My Bag of Desires

The child must one day
Return to his parent.
The bird must fly
Back to its nest.
And the nightingale
Yearns for the Rose.
The arrow will soon
Come home to the quiver.

The fish cannot last forever
Away from the ocean.
The heart cannot beat
For long out of the chest.
And the body needs
The soul to remain warm.

I too packed
My bag of desires
And made my way back
To where I truly belong
