I feel nothing
But everything
Stuck in a cloud
Of crowded isolation
So I run
With the wind
Gliding its cool fingers through my hair
And the ground holds me up
And follows
Foot by foot
Mile by mile
The flowers
Smile up at me
From the soft ground, they lay in
Bright colours of bliss
Intricate life
So delicately constructed
Small
But resilient
The clouds
Float freely above me
White and wispy
Objects of freedom
And peace
My heartbeat quickens
As I realize
I\'ve gone too far
To fast
So I slow to a walk
And rest...
I rested,
seated on a bench
overlooking a street
as cars fly by
time seems to pass
at the same speed
in a blur of color
and noise
And it seems to stop
in a sudden silence
with the sun
setting in the distance
streaks of gold and orange
like a painting
and I sat and
I watched the sun
lower itself
closer to the horizon
as the stars
began to show their faces...
