What weighs so heavily on my return
Is it the disappointment of work
The selfishness of family
What is it that weighs so heavily
After the joys and discoveries of travel
Is it that dog that won’t stop barking
The lawn mowers on Sunday morning
The house that needs cleaning
Why am I so weighed down
Feeling the joy of travel harden inside me
Protecting me from the disappointment
Of arrival
