In silence I am straining to hear

There is a battle between the voices
Of kindness and cruelty

Both of which are screaming
To just be free

I long to be elsewhere
Away from it all --
From the people I know,
And from the things I'm used to

I long to be elsewhere
A place I've yet to know --
To discover and to be free
And perhaps to get to know the person in me

The greens and yellows of the grass and trees
The cloudless blue sky
And the warm breeze

All this on a Wednesday afternoon
Some quiet and peace
My mind is at ease

Like being wrapped up in a thick blanket on a cold night,
Like waking up early and getting the first ray of sunlight;

Like flipping channels then catching reruns of your favorite show,
Like discovering new music and keeping it on repeat;

Like the wind in your hair and your toes in the sand,
Like the crashing of waves and the ripples they make—

You.

You are the happiness in all this and more.
