Open

Open word, open heart, open mind, open.

Open can be such a strange, yet liberating word.

Just to say it is to experience a certain enlightenment.

Open,

As in the sound of creaking door hinges

in the serenity of an empty, unfurnished house

by the spread of shore which touches the rocking waves.

As in the blue and endless summer sky

which stretches with the breeze over your head

and dips behind the mountains and horizons.

Open.

Just to think it is to think of a pure clarity.

Open can be such a small, but enormous word.

I wrote this in like 5 minutes because I felt that I needed to get it down. I haven't written much in a while, but I'm trying to get back into the swing of it :)
