Look at the sunset, let your eyes nonchalantly rest upon the sepia of fluorescent.
Look at the moon, let your mind wander to places a million light years from right here.
Look at the petals, notice how every one is beautiful despite it's differences or imperfections.
Look at the water, feel its pulse and the way every droplet is powerful enough to suffocate your bones.
Look at the grey sky, take note of how it is not just one shade but a million tones colliding into another.
Look at your hands, feel the possibility and endlessness to your creations that flow from your palms.
Look at tears, capture how each one is just aqua but it's all of the pain and the feelings turned into a liquid.
Look at the sun,
(Please not for too long)
See how it is the centre of all life and existence and light, no matter how dark, is always warmth.
Look at eyes,
(Please look deeply)
Capture how every one is completely alone in its uniqueness and see the vastness of the spectrum.
Look at words,
Feel how everyone is of equal importance and how spiralling figures are the basis of all we hope to know.
Look at the trees,
Hair, roads, rivers, piano keys, guitar strings, dogs, strangers, houses, smoke, scars, fire, rainbows, stars.
Oh look at the universe,
It's got a silver lining called wonder.
