Disappear

I close my eyes as I take a deep breath.


I listen intently at the sound of the breeze as it flows through my mind.


For a moment, I disappear.


Even if for only a moment


........Or for a life time,


I disappear.


If I open my eyes, will I be saddened by the nature of man?


Will I be horrified by the atrocities perpetrated on life?


My eyes are closed


My eyes are closed


.......... I disappear.


Another deep breath.


I will breath in hope and love.


I will breath in the wish for empathetic hearts.


I will dream of a world aware


.........so I may disappear
