The summer sun shines brightly through my window,

With the scent of fresh cut grass wafting through,

however there seems to be so much sadness down below,

and I cant seem to detach myself from it.

I try to escape this evil around me,

That always tries to drag me down,

but even though there's so much pleasure to be sought all I see is negativity,

even when its far from my desire.

One day I dream of frolicking among the wildflowers,

and feeling the warm sun on my skin,

even though all I feel is cold stinging showers,

I know someday my mind will change along with this dream being obtained.
