Let The Sun Shine

Running in the thick woods, trying my best for the seekers not to find….. I am a child again! The laughter in my eyes as I tickle down the thicket echoes the warm feeling in my tummy. This is what I live for… a carefree life with no responsibility in the world. It’s hot and sweaty, my heart is racing and I choke on what appears to be my saliva as I gasp for the much needed air, reality hitting me hard! I awaken to a rude shock fifteen years later all sweaty in my bed…. looking around my once so adorned walls. Story of my ‘precious’ life. As I roll out of bed in a gamble rumbling my now not so playful life, it occurs to me that growing up comes with a high price to pay. Freedom and responsibilities! As I open my living room door dream still vivid in my mind, the sun rays are spectacularly dancing on the red walls, reflecting its soft rays from the blue doorway window bouncing its light to the adjacent mustard walls. I have made my own paradise in my small living room, I walk into a rainbow every morning. The warm sun on my wet cool skin warms it and turns it golden. This is what I Live for; what has been my driving force ever since I can remember. My silhouette so perfectly crafted as a shadow on one of the walls, I smile at the spectacle. The sun makes it all beautiful and worth it, a sight to behold even for the most simple of minds, it’s only price is a thought, a minute, a second to appreciate and take it all in appreciation.
