Away.
Where your true home lies,
Awaiting your warm presence.
The flourishing waves
Of the shimmering sea
Call your name repeatedly,
Crashing down in such fluid motions,
A charming invitation to dance.
To make up for the icy water
Is the flaming sun, shining relentlessly.
And so you press your bare feet into the gravelly yellow sand,
Making your way toward the welcoming waves,
Step by step,

Feelings of freedom and absolute elation
Rise above all else,
No longer is there even a hint of negativity
Clouding your adventurous mind,
Not a shred of doubt,
Not a slither of ire,
No, instead there lie
Blossoming feelings of exuberance and rapture.
And so you skip
Through the waves of serenity,
Allowing it to heal the wounds of your past,
To polish this new beginning,
This new chapter of your life in-

Where the ancient trees stand tall,
In a protective stance
Like pillars,
Supporting you through every hardship,
Every struggle.
Uplifting you to the breathtaking heights
Of their highest branches,
Shading you from the fierce, blazing sun,
Covering you from each drop of the plummeting rain,
Protecting you from the most dangerous of storms,
Nourishing you with the purest of air,
Leading you through the bewildering maze called 'life'.
These trees are everything and everyone
You could possibly need,
These trees are the answer to each and every one
Of your random questions.
These trees lead for miles and miles in every direction,
These trees, the very foundation of-
