Have you spotted the silence?

Walking.
Feeling my feet sink.
The ground becomes softer and softer with every step.
The closer I get, the more the earth seems to disappear.
Fresh breeze swallows me.
Whispering,"everything’s going to be alright".
I look up and breathe.
My worries just wash away.
Running off, kicking up the water.
Watching the pieces of my life scatter.
As my problems sink into the sand so peacefully like they were never there.
My smile ripping the sun’s glory right out of the sky.
Dancing away the light.
Pretending to be a star.
Acting like I own the night.
Not a care in the world to be judged or to be seen.
The land, but the sea.
Is all I need.
The perfect place to be.
Just to be me.
But why is that?!
Why do I only feel free,
When I only can see the sea??
I can see through the crystal blue.
So why do I still sit here and question my life?
Why is it so hard to make the push?
As soon as I step away,
The stars still hang high, but I fall back inside.

Work in progress still. It's based off a moment I shared in Mexico January 2014.
