Beautiful Mind

The view of a depressed pessimist. Surround yourself with beauty, even though you feel like s**t.

Today the sky screamed

a striking blue. The trees

that towered above and 

the grass she used as a bed 

seemed to vibrate with life.

Birds sang melodiously.  

Everything seemed so alive!

From the cotton white clouds 

above to the tadpoles 

that thrived in the water.

 

The only one lacking life

or animation was her. 

She was a simple 

two-dimensional slab

on this sphere considered life. 

A mistaken stroke the

artist in the sky regretfully 

brushed on their canvas.  

While the world continued 

to revolve in its orbit

and as time quickly ticked 

away on clocks that 

seemed to make up the 

faces of her demons. She

Remained still. Never moving; 

afraid to give the devilish  

hounds a victim to chase. 

Today the animals cheered and 

danced for spring. The wind

whispered through the busy

forest carrying the sweet 

crisp scent that told of coming

rain. Tulips bloomed beside 

her, stretching their petals

towards the warm embrace

of the ever-shining sun.

Sometimes another can understand the background a person seems to have become such an inarticulate part of - and sometimes they too can peer from within the hedges of existence.
