Run away with me!
Let us find the edge of the earth,
and fly amongst the stars.
Let us lose ourselves
in the mystical playground called life
while others lose themselves in
in the mundane world
and what they perceive
as reality.
Let us live
until the day when we move on
to the next stage of our existence,
where we will continue
to find out just who we are
and why we are here.
Where we will discover
that no matter what we think we know,
we will never know enough,
and we will never know everything.

Beautifully written. So much of what I see in others is the obsession or perhaps the trap of the mundane. Sometimes we can “run away” for a few moments each day. Grab the beauty of our existence. At least that is what I try to do!
It is easy to get trapped and hard to break free. Where I might not be able to physically go to the places I want, I can go there in my writing.
You got it. I feel the same way.
I really liked this poem a lot. The message, Life is Filled with the Mundane & Have to Do`s that grind us down to a slow death. To Dream is To Escape, Make it Reality even if only in our Dreams. Great Poem Heidi !
Thank you. 🙂
