Inspired to Breathe

Inspiration comes with a choice.

A chance given to ourselves,

By our inner strive for freedom,

Of happiness,

Of life.


To look at the sky,

And see blue again,

Instead of grey,

That is my freedom.


To look at the grass,

And see green again,

Instead of black,

That is my happiness.


To look at the trees,

And feel the wind again,

Instead of suffocating,

That is my life. 


Nature inspired me.

The colors fueled me.

The sounds drove me.


I regret the day I stopped being inspired,

And that is my daily.
