Landscape And Poetry

Days like today



Days like today, I spend my time with my head pressed at a window. The sun’s rays shining through as the sun slowly sinks and disappears over the horizon. I can smell the cold in the air as I noticed my breath fogging up the glass. The night approaches, the sun tucking away its body like it is preparing to sleep. Vibrant colors paints the sky as shades of red, orange, yellow, blue, and violet scatters all over blue canvas. It was magnificent and beautiful in its own way for a moment before it became completely dark. Times like these, I feel so small compared to the whole world, compared to everything. So powerless, and not in control of anything, trapped in my own world, trying to break out as much as I can each day.

Looking through the window, there is a world out there, full of adventure, full of excitement waiting for me. Just like that something inside me awakens. Fire lights up my eyes, passion courses through my body, and wonder fills my mind. The night approaches, and the world becomes quiet, I can see my thoughts perfectly. I wonder do you look at the night sky and have the same thoughts as me or if you look at the sky and think of me sometimes. I wonder if you are going through your day and a thought about me fills your whole being.

I do think about you though, I am not going to lie. Whenever the sky becomes dark, and it looks like it is going to cry, as the shadow of its sadness spreads all over the land, a gloomy feeling touches everyone’s soul then all of a sudden light shines through, clouds gives way to the sun, the earth is showered with bright colors, as the light magnifies the intensity of each shade of red, orange, green, blue and every color imaginable. The birds would chirp, the squirrels would play and the day becomes cheerful. I thought, I could see myself feeling like that whenever I see you smile when I take you on a date.
