I lay in the field, the one attached to all of the memories. I'm embedded in dust while looking up; counting each and every leaf that falls from the tree above me. I have forgotten the city styles, loves, pressures. I only live for me. I look up to the sky, I can smell the rain. Everything gets calm and quiet. Peace and isolation... My only combination for now. Lacking inspiration, I write. The whispers of music behind me carry me on, unafraid of coldness and nostalgia a million miles away in front of me. I take the easiest trail to forget. But everything stays the same. I long for old summer days, ones where I could open my window and breath beautiful translucent air. Youth that I will never have again sticks with me like an perfume. A day to remember for a lifetime. One season for eternity.
I'll Just Keep On Dreaming
"Come to the edge."
"We can't. We're afraid!"
"Come to the edge."
"We can't. We'll fall!"
"Come to the edge."
And they came.
And he pushed them.
And they flew.
-Guillaume Apollinaire
