Solo travel appears to be a big trend
If you suffer from wanderlust and intend
To travel the world, you might not find
Others in your social orbit similarly inclined
But YOLO! You live only once, therefore
The wonders of the world you should explore
Alone, or with other strangers who share
Your love for travel, you can find them everywhere
*
The idea of traveling all alone is intimidating, I must say
I am afraid of losing my stuff or bearings along the way
Of being duped or robbed, being left in the wilderness
I am afraid of a trip turning into a nightmare, I confess
*
I am still waiting to embark on that life-changing journey
That has the potential to transform me
Some day my wanderlust I shall satiate
Until then, short solo trips I shall celebrate
Passion...unbridled
