Let your mind settle into a quiet equilibrium,
That happy place that babies must think of in the womb,
Or where your dreams are so magical that
When you wake up, you can’t remember what you dreamt.
A place too much for the real world.
Let your heart play a steady, slow song.
Where your eyelids vibrate to the beat,
So enraptured are you by yourself.
Then picture the pure,
Simple thing in life.
Feel them.
As if they were there.
Crystal dew drops, glitter, and cotton candy.
The light scent of
Honeysuckle, clover, and fresh hay on a cool, clear morning
After a long night’s rain.
Flushed, tear-stained cheek against the cool skin of your best friend.
Do you feel it?
Do you smell it?
Do you taste it?
Let these things become you,
And then smile.
Be filled with love.
Because these are the things
That make life beautiful.

Just.... more randon words, I guess. I write what I feel, what words feel right in that instant when my fingers tap on the keyboard, and this is the result.
