Comfort

Ne'er had I contemplated the existence of fathomless shades of green.

Until I conceded my gaze toward the woodland.

Free were the leaves to choose where they lay on spectrum.



And choose, they did.

From viridescent and lime, to pea and emerald, to olive and forest...



Chroma and value be damned.

Vast were the hues.

Boundless were the flora.



I longed to be that autonomous.

Liberally wrapping myself in nothing, save my natural sum and substance.

Offering no qualms to whether or how I'm received.



Content to let others interpret as they willed.

While foliage preserved epidermal and mesophyllial authorship.

Ahhh, to find comfort in fierce holism.

Suddenly disheveled by hope.

The uncertainty of unexplored terrain grappling with the safety of familiarity.

Emancipation eclipsing fear.

>>>

Fight or flight.

Moments of unyielding turmoil.

Complex are the dirt and weeds of cataclysmic burgeoning.

>>>

Fight or flight.

Reviews of whether verdure's brilliance is sufficient, echoing relentlessly.

Aware that season-induced pruning drew nigh.

>>>

Fight or flight.

Opting out of opting out.

Intuitively unearthing a diverging path.

At long last, agreeing with creation's landscape and my own inner wild.

The kaleidoscopic verdant of my own amassing entity.

No longer teetering over external judgment.

My quintessence having shed popular opinion, and rooted out defeatist internal dialogue.

Mentally transposing negative for promise.

Now, wading through this serenity's intrinsic peace.

Unposited, this space of organic liberation bringing about an ethereal connection to true-self.



Allowing me to encounter pace that suited my composition.

Greedily wondering if it were possible to live this valiantly...

Present at all times, within the season at hand.



Until this generous wood unveiled itself, green was ne'er provocation.

Nevertheless, here we are.

Fortuitously precipitating the embrace of my inner-man.



Contentedness bridging possibility to manifestation.

And now, musing unimaginably, while breathing in harmony within indigenous surroundings.



Being- unrestrained.

Wholeness of an uninterrupted identity.

Wrapped in the comfort of purely existing.

Unbridled and ever-green.
