I took a secret trip to Europe and didn’t tell anyone
I wanted to feel freedom and chase the sun
Didn’t want to think, I just wanted to BE
Too tired of hopping around waiting to be seen
I wanted what I wanted so much
, I wasn’t ready
So I left and waited for my green light, I had go and prepare
I found myself quiet in awe of ancient beauty
Got lost and found with history and foodies
Listening to waterfalls and people pass
Coming back to realize I was home at last

I took a secret trip to Europe and only told a few
This familiar space I recognized felt anew,
The past, a present, so present was I
A child like wonder I found in others now in I
Found triggers and the reason they were aflame
Understood my love why it ran away
Walked until my thoughts made sense of that day
Wasn’t till I was home that I found the courage for what I needed to say
I let someone else lead so I could be a tourist.
Found my imagination and what she was waiting for
To speak up, to be free, and to use her unapologetically

I took a secret trip to Europe and didn’t tell anyone
I fell in love, changed my hair, got lost, partied, slept off the day
Rescued myself and my sisters, was accused and accused others – we were all guilty parties
I Laughed, I walked 50 miles, had the best sandwich of my life, got found then lost again, handled business, prayed for my brother,
And found my peace,my calm, my fight, and my joy.

The beauty of travel is the freedom of self
To see me through your eyes help me redefine my self
and it’s worth, now I know I’m made of gold
I got to live, adventure, make mistakes and I realized I’m a sight to behold and tons of fun.
So I’m going to take another trip somewhere and not tell anyone
