the lone tourists


The lone tourists
Visiting the countries
Hoping to see and learn
Go with the adventurous spirit

Like the ancient sailors
They would seek fortunes and land
In the foreign countries
Believing they could harvest wealth

But many gave up their lives
On the foreign countries without a trace
Leaving behind the stories of their exploits
Even history could not write many of them

Now we have the lone tourists
Hopping around the world
Many too have lost their lives
In countries they think are safe

Nothing is safe anymore
There is always a murderer
Looking for prey to satisfy a lust
It is best to travel in group or two

Hopping around alone
Visiting countries to gain exposure
Learn the cultures, arts, food or languages
It is best to travel safe in group or two
