I’m going to travel the world,
In a turquoise caravan,
Chasing rainbows across continents.
Two months here and three months there,
Following a path of stars,
Set out for a gypsy queen,
Words will be my currency,
And stories my trade.

One day, I’m going to.
One day, I’m going.

I’m going to university,
To learn all that I can,
Become the person that I should be.
Shakespeare here and Austen there,
My mind filled with prose,
Of great beauty and great wit,
Surrounded by vibrant spirits,
Like vultures.

One day, I’m going to.
One day, I’m going.

I’m going to leave this place,
And it’s cold grey granite soul,
There is nothing special,
No glitter here or sparkle there,
I don’t want to be,
Just another little ant working,
I am a butterfly in waiting,
And I can fly away.

One day, I’m going to.
One day, I’m going.

This is a real dope poem...I can relate...here in Miami, Florida, U.S.A., i can't find the cultured people I would like to associate myself with. And I want to leave and get out cuz theres nothing here for me.
