Approaching a clearing in the mind, Open and vulnerable to the elements Alone and free, experimentation is a natural path Burdens lift from shoulders, floating overhead Paper crumpled in the hands of divinity Blown away on the whispered promises of better things to come Sanctity swells around the feet like a fog Wandering through fallen leaves, memories discarded with no value Rustles roll to thunderous applause Eyes open, head tilts to the heavens View unadulterated, comprehension unhindered Empty sky, so simple now Peace sinks heavy through constricted nerves, An old home, vacant for so long Senses overwhelmed, must pause for reflection Past plugged into socket stars, Space seems less distant now, A dashboard of cause and effect Eyes adjust, nature's palette returns again, Forest thickens, clearing closing in Experience a buried fossil, waiting rediscovery

Epiphany
Approaching a clearing in the mind, Open and vulnerable to the elements Alone and free, experimentation is a natural path Burdens lift from shoulders, floating overhead Paper crumpled in the hands of divinity Blown away on the whispered promises of better things to come Sanctity swells around the feet like a fog Wandering through fallen leaves, memories discarded with no value Rustles roll to thunderous applause Eyes open, head tilts to the heavens View unadulterated, comprehension unhindered Empty sky, so simple now Peace sinks heavy through constricted nerves, An old home, vacant for so long Senses overwhelmed, must pause for reflection Past plugged into socket stars, Space seems less distant now, A dashboard of cause and effect Eyes adjust, nature's palette returns again, Forest thickens, clearing closing in Experience a buried fossil, waiting rediscovery
