I have a pet rock, that no one knows about

Because long ago, I left him on the ground

Today he may be anywhere, a traveler at heart

I knew my rock could go much farther, apart

For I am slow to travel, and slower so to change

But there is so much out there, for the rock to face

I was too afraid, to go on to the world

But my rock was courageous, and easily bored

So I made a promise, to find him one day

When I no longer wished, for life to be the same

Years I have waited, apart from my old friend

But today will be different, I will look for him instead.
