Write no more of self inflicted scars Of brutality, pain, suffering For all those things only increase your suffering
Instead write of a rich green forest ***** Alive in the sunlight Alive with the sounds of nature Of animals and birds
Write about the beauty of the common flower Struggling up from a crack in broken concrete A flower not filled with despair But instead offering it's beauty to your eyes As though giving thanks for its existence
Yes, sadness and despair we can all feel For we are mere mortals But for despair there is a cure not written on the pages of a book Take yourself to a rocky place overlooking the sea Watch the seagulls effortlessly ride the wind Read stories in the foaming breaking waves Smell the ozone in the air
Or
Take yourself to a sunlit forest glade Close your eyes and listen as nature calls your name She will tell you "leave despair behind and write no more of it" Free your mind of dark thoughts You have no need of fancy words From one with letters after his name Your despair will be washed away by scalding tears Tears of happiness, as nature plays her game
Like most people I have my darker moments and my answer is the above, no matter what the weather nature will always give me the release that I seek
