I've traveled the world
As far back as I could remember
I've been traveling without parents
Since my 20s
And yet
Though I adore the adventure
Before I leave
At least a week before
I develop an existential
Mind fuck
Anxiety roars out of nowhere
Like a dragon yet tamed
Fear is misplaced
But very real
The thoughts, nagging
What if I don't meet anyone?
What if I'm alone the whole weekend?
What if I hate it?
Money wasted
This was just a latest mini trip
Where I had a wonderful time
But I didn't feel the fear leave
Until I was on the road driving
No matter where I go,
I always meet great people
And keep the connections
For years
Here was no different
And I was so glad I went
But I just wish I didn't have to suffer
So much before hand
How do I escape
Cease and desist
This mind fuck
Once and for all?
Because according to plans made already
It should strike again in July
And I dread feeling out of control
I want to lasso this beast
Making it my bitch
As opposed to the reverse
How do I win?
By continuing to fight
I will never give up
Until it bows before me
As I break it's invisible hold;
My chains and shoot into the sky
