Up

Stop, look up, look at the clouds. I am walking along a forest path in a valley surrounded by massive rocks. The rays of the sun fall on my face through the branches and an endless view opens up to my side. I sit back and enjoy the moment. All I can hear is the rustling of leaves... And then suddenly loud human voices begin to be heard. I long for silence. I long for an escape. I long for peace. I'm going uphill. I do not know where. Maybe far. Maybe up to the clouds. I try to find silence. I'm trying to escape. I'm trying to find peace. I am alone. I'm standing on the top, I can only see a long, endless rock below me. Hills and hills in the distance, but still surrounded by the proximity of trees. I have my silence. I have my escape. I have my peace.
