I have a gypsy soul and a travellers spirit
I have wandered this planet of ours for as long as I can remember
I crave the feeling of an aeroplane leaving the tarmac and breaching the clouds
I hunger for distant landscapes and foreign climates
I yearn for the taste of new foods and the sound of new languages
My being is scattered over this earth
I have found refuge and comfort in every country I have visited
But it is not buildings or places that house my heart
It is the people I love
It is often painful
Homesickness for a place can be torture
But homesickness for a person is unbearable
But lucky are we
Who have the fortune to miss people
Who have the luxury of loving others so deeply that at times not being with them can physically hurt
When I feel like my heart is being pulled over oceans and seas
I remember that I am built up from all corners of this globe
The pain is temporary
The reunion hug will be worth it
The love is permanent
