Paper Planes

If the world was just a room,

 if I were only a paper plane.

I would have flown across the world a hundred times. 

To take landfall in a different location every time,

 never the same exact place again.

I could land on the Rainbow Mountains of Peru, 

or the Sam Musi Tsai 

Beach of Hong Kong. But if I were to land on a body of water,

 what a waste I would have been. 

Landing on a place that has yet to be discovered will be a challenge

And an unearthing experience. 

If only it was that easy just to take off, 

Without fear and worry,

 without the care of political issues and traveling expenses.

Never looking back.

 Only looking forward.

 See something new everyday. 

If the world was just a room,

 if I were only a paper plane.
