My Brain is a Numb Dungeon
#WhisperingNature

Love from a broken heart
Is like rain from leaves
It can't ever come
But a rain of leaves can happen
Soak you in the serenity of autumn
Did my mind think of this?
No, nature whispered it in my ears

Whispered it in a way
That only I could hear
Only I could feel that
Cold wind on my face
And hear everytime
What it says

And each time
It's something new
A neverending list of
Effortless clues

But I am a dumb person
My brain is a numb dungeon
I can't get the
Simplest of hints
I am running courses of
The longest sprints
Still not getting
The signs of life
They are all around me

Sun shows me power
I am cleansed by a rain shower
The leaves dancing there
Remind me to breathe air
The age old trees
Stand with all the crease
Showing me delegance
With all its elegance
The storms show aggression
Sometimes needed
To uproot the oppression

So many more mentors
Sway in
My way
Every single day
And still I don't see them
And then I keep on raging
On life that's just giving
Not taking anything
Like a damn rich King
Taking all of my shit
And refuses to let me quit

Nature's the best thing
We got without asking
And still I don't know why
I don't listen
To the whispers of nature
Who continues to nurture
Me and you and everyone
Without asking for a sum of one

And still I don't listen
To these whispers of nature
Because I am a dumb person
My brain is a numb dungeon
