i was always bound for the city life
that’s the only life i have ever known
thinking of the simple life makes me want to jump off a bridge
and maybe that’s a little dramatic but it’s the truth
at the same time, there’s something so intriguing about it
it can be that it’s so unknown to me and something completely different than my norm
people say once you experience it nothing else matters and you realize that everything else in this world is just...
a joke
but the quiet scares me
too much silence isn’t good for the brain
me alone with just my thoughts can be a horrifying place to be
but also the most wonderful depending on the day
the noise keeps me alive and my mind busy
chaos turns into beauty
inspiration bleeding out everywhere you look
never a dull moment
not a minute to spare
i love being in a big city
it makes me crave those quiet fleeting moments and grasp for them as long as i can before it disappears again
i always loved travelling for that reason, especially on trains
when passing through little towns and countryside you get that dose of quiet that i oh so desperately need when my head has been around to many fumes that i can’t think straight anymore
as much as my mind needed that quiet time is as much as my heart is itching to be back in the noise
i guess i’m a person who needs a little bit of both to be somewhat sane
duality is a part of my nature and that’s okay life’s all about balance and nothing is perfect
the next stop is...
