Nature

Stepping out
Breathing in
Fresh air
In my lungs again

Walking up
Walking down
Gravel roads
I walk on

Cold wind blows
It’s freezing here
I want to rest
And drink some beer

No one’s judging
No one cares
If I die here
No one hears

Tippy toeing
Along the edge
Keep on holding
To the ledge

No one’s asking
Happy, blessed?
Or maybe even
Sad and depressed?

That’s nature for ya
Doesn’t give a shit
She really doesn’t care
If life gives you a hit

She’ll embrace you
With all your sins
All the hatred
And the self-doubt within

She’ll embrace you
With a hug
And she’ll tell you
All the stories she’s got

The more time I spent
With her in my arms
The more it seems
She’s just as human as I am

My dearest friend
Do you see it now?
The reason why I
Go to her once in a while

One day you’ll see
There is nothing above
Mother nature’s embrace
And her undying love
