Existing.

by Poet on the Piano   May 24, 2023


Too much effort
to drink
to eat
to do anything

I envy
the wind
and how
it moves
freely

Can I be free
Will I ever be free

Who can grant it to me
if not myself

Please just let me be

This is all

too much

    If I think about it, the wind doesn’t seem to move freely, there’s usually something creating it and luring it or moving it to its destination.

    “During the day, air above land heats up faster than air above water. Warm air above land expands and rises, and heavier, cooler air rushes in to take its place, creating wind”

    “Gases move from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas. And the bigger the difference between the pressures, the faster the air will move from the high to the low pressure. That rush of air is the wind we experience.“

    When whatever lures it is not there, I guess it feels like there’s no freedom, but on the other hand, I guess that’s when we experience freedom. Now is a choice, we we gotta keep finding motivations and ways to keep on creating and recreating us to move. It is a different type of freedom. This freedom is heavy. Not sure if I make sense. But I feel you. I hope you are doing well.

    To be left alone to be ourselves instead of being under pressure to be someone and chained to that. The freedom to be yourself..can very much understand this feeling!
