If I close my eyes
and try to listen closely
A familiar tune starts to play
Be it night or in the day
The gush of the wind
As I ride away
The smell of the rain
As i redeem my soul and body again
A perfect escape from an exasperating day
the lush green colour
the freshness in the air
settles inside of you
through the jitter that runs down your spine
relieving you of all the burdens
that you carry
All the despair that you go through
gone in a moment
as you are overcome
by the feeling of being blown
by that familiar wind
that had brought you to your dreamland
where, there's the same tranquility
and those bright colours,
that don't hurt your eyes
but make you want to be consumed by them
where, standing on a cliff
doesn't seem so suicidal after all
where there are no regrets
when you look around
And only smiles of your own
And the Sun
seems to pleasantly beam at you
telling you "shine on, I am here to make you smile"
"to make you love"
"to release you from the harrowing nothingness"
"to make you a part of me"
where ,the ever so picturesque landscape
Nature's gift of a cradle
those deep cascading valleys
seem to show you the path of light
the path to attain sustenance of self alone,
As I succumb to those memories, I realise,
I'd rather have that peace back,
than this perfect life.
