Wherever you go, there still will be you

A sonnet

Wherever you go, there still will be you.
Though the scenery can change quite a bit,
It may not always come with a break through.
That will only happen if you commit.

“If I could leave here, it would be the best!”
But escaping a place is not the key.
It will not yet free you as you request,
It becomes a new cell from which to plea.

Don’t think that a new place will make the change.
If you want something better for yourself,
It’s not the SITE that you should rearrange,
But your SIGHT (and your goals, and your bookshelf).

You must reshape yourself from the inside.
Only then will your soul be satisfied.
