If only we had wings...?

   Were you ever out with your Family/Friends on a vacation? Everyone around was happy , enjoying. Sure you did enjoy too, still there was this emptiness lurking in the corner of your heart. You did smile, did run from place to place in the arms of nature and when you stopped, the whole world seemed a little darker, the air in your lungs heavier than before, eyes searching for that one ray of light. The serenity piercing your ears. The depth of the valleys making your heart throb louder than ever. The orange tint of the sky taking away your sense of belonging. The cold breeze making you want to sleep forever in the arms of the surrounded nature.

Suddenly you hear a voice of your friend or a family member telling you how beautiful the scenery in front of your eyes is. Before they finish their sentence you already know, they dont see what you are seeing, they dont feel what you are feeling. when they are feeling a sense of accomplishment, you feel the darkness reside deeper in your heart. The eeriness aching your heart with every breath you take. 

Obviously you go out to avoid your scheduled life. To feel one with nature, to relax, to breathe, but everytime you are out in nature, in peace, your heart sinks deeper than that it does When surrounded by the traffic of the city. You start missing that one person you wish you had by your side in that moment. You feel your heart heavy with the emptiness of your surrounding. You breathe longer, deeper only to feel breathless over and over again.

You know when your family and friends, they go to the right screaming, "Wow, Look how high on the mountain top we are, look how deep the valley is", and you just go to the left side of the mountain, gazing far into the purple tinted sky, with cold breeze on your cheeks and foggy eyes staring into the nothingness. The screams, the giggles, the voices slowly fading as you walk on the other side alone with only birds and insects chirping and singing the sweet melody of nature, while the sky turns darker every moment, from sky blue, to yellow, to orange, to purple and the sun sinking slowly in the arms of the horizon, resting, and dimming it's glow.

We go away, try to escape from our day to day life by cuddling in the arms of nature, by climbing high mountains, and peeking into the deep valleys, submerging ourselves into huge waves of the ocean or just by watching the sun set as the darkness engulps the sky. We go miles away from our home to find peace which we search in the highest of mountains with lowest of altitudes, in the deepest of valleys with the highest waterfall, the greens of the earth soothing our eyes, the blues of the sky calming our minds. We search for serenity, we search for peace, we chase birds flying, up high in the sky thinking, wishing, if only we had wings.
