Alive
Rain drizzled from the sky
The cold hard pebbles sending tiny punches to my face
I lay on the soaken grass
Letting myself be drowned by nature
But at the same time I'm being reborn
I take in the musky smell of life
And the loud but quiet splashes of rain
I felt free, I felt jotful, I felt rejuvenated
But most of all...
I felt alive
My very first time feeling alive
When my heart has been beating for centuries
But feeling this way comes with a price
So I layed there, closing my eyes
My heart slowed
I ignored the sounds of chaos many miles away
I ignored the system telling me to get up, run, fight back
I gnored their thoughts, their inclinations
They're coming for me.
So I wait
