Escape

Thinking of Life

By GARY DEANPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Take me away and let me dream of meadows resplendent in the warm summer sun.

Take my mind into a frivolous daydream left to meander in whichever course prevails.

Take my sleeping spirit into a land of wonder and a walk with the mad hatter.

I do not ask the earth for more than it can give or for precious adornments.

All I want is peace to live and a moment to escape the entrapment of modern life.

Without inner peace life becomes a burden while you constantly carry a heavy load.

What keeps you sane and gives you hope, what gives you a life that gives you worth in this world.

Without hope or direction you are just a leaf in the wind not knowing the value of life itself.

Let others be who they want to be but don’t blindly follow just because there is a consensus.

Be who you truly are and never without accord be strayed onto a perilous path.
