Tranquility

There exists a place on earth

Where one can find true peace

A place away from stress and pain

A place where all of it will cease

 

For some, it's near the ocean

That a calm can always be found

The waves carry all the stress away

With that familiar relaxing sound

 

The coolness of the water,

And the warmth of sunny rays,

It doesn't take very long at all

Before the world melts away

 

For others it's the forest

That sets their mind at ease

The world feels completely still

When you're surrounded by tall trees

 

The air somehow feels calmer

It smells remarkably fresh

Some birds tweet in the distance

And your thoughts again can mesh

 

So often we get caught up

In the worries of the day

We forget to worry about ourselves

And take some time away

 

So whether you go alone

Or with someone you hold dear

Make sure to find the time you need

To make your head feel clear

Notes

I have had such horrible writers block for a few months now. Every time I tried to sit down to write a poem, I couldn't come up with any inspiration. Then when I finally did, I couldn't put them into the right words. The result was confusing poems that I didn't really feel that proud of.

Happy to say that after some much needed time away, the poem came to me and I am proud of it. Starting the new year back on track with some relaxation and some poetry. Hope you all enjoyed it, and can find time to relax and clear your heads in the near future :) <3
