At Ease

I sit with legs perched to my chest and eyes fixed on the radiating blue from the flames.

The stars are above me and sounds of a roaring ocean surround me. It's this peace that brings me comfort.

Simple moments keep me going;
My joy now steady growing.

Before recent times, I would need to answer all their questions with great fervor. Now, I silence myself.

I'm not to be understood,
My way neither.
No longer vocal,
Just a dreamer.

I speak for the day and my desires for tomorrow, but the coming seasons are a mystery to be discovered.
