My lungs
engulfed the fresh air
of the exhilaration -
of running.
A familiar bustle
of an old life,
that longed to reawaken.

The smell of rain
in the damp air,
and the sight of running feet
queued in transit.
Sweat and thrill of adrenaline,
with a steady heart beat and breathing.

Each stride
on this rubberized track,
caressed the soles of my worries.
A salty refreshing delight,
from this oval on a hill while running.

The pace of dynamic muscles,
lift the energy inside.
A reacquainted friend,
my shoes, the track, and running.

Puddles filled with waisted tears,
of a lonely heart that weeps.
Blank stares in a windowless room,
of a mind that never sleeps.

Each heavy footstep on the ground,
left smears of agonies of this longing.
A plea to finally be released,
from a bond of days of suffering.

The seconds of the clock lingered,
like decades in a prison cell.
No hope but a memory of yesterday,
before a wicked sorcerer’s spell.

A morning of sunshine and honeybees,
waited in a far off distance.
Time slipped through a desperate soul,
and would empty this protracted hourglass.

The buzzing started
A signal that life woke up
I opened my eyes

Appetite stimulus

Tummies roar with rage
From the smell of breakfast air
Feet walks to the food.

New Year’s Eve

Fireworks play above,
Like children with their new toys.
The New Year is here.
