After a long week
"thoughts"
After a long, busy week,
Here I am.
It is Saturday morning.
I am alone.
Resting.
My window is open.
A fresh breeze.
There are a few light rain showers outdoors.
Birds fly.
I'm watching from my window.
The gray mist is moving slowly.
Viewing it from a distance appears invigorating.
Enjoying nature.
Next to me, there's a cup of coffee.
I am fantasizing about life.
I wish I could relax like this every day.
I wish I had all I desired.
Sometimes life can keep me occupied.
Is there a way?
Will I ever rest and stop working?
How can I even get to the point of resting?
I wish I had everything.
I wish my life was simpler.
