The golden crisps of leaves drift down to settle on the top of my head
i smile and shake my hair around my face
walking forward with no real direction in mind
the sun sends its yellow rays down
putting sparkle in the eyes of anyone outdoors
feeling the freedom of where to go and what to do
nothing could make me turn back hope
nothing can bring me down
from this self-loving mind set that i have placed myself inside
nobody knows where i am going
nobody i will know will see me
and this doesnt need to matter
i shake my head and laugh loudly to myself again
twirl around in a circle with my arms outstretched
and i feel the world turn
see it pass by me in a blur of greens and oranges
feeling alive
and only in the good way
who could imagine what it is like to never
take a walk like i have
to wonder if death will strike you down at any moment
alive the first dead the next
sunlight cascades around my figure making me a silouette in the falling light
look at what i have
i think
why cant everyone have this world?
why cant everyone have peace?

It flows well until this line: "putting sparkle in the eyes of anyone outdoors"
Cliche,"feeling the freedom of where to go and what to do
nothing could make me turn back hope
nothing can bring me down"
??from this self-loving mind set that i have placed myself inside
This works well, "i shake my head and laugh loudly to myself again
twirl around in a circle with my arms outstretched
and i feel the world turn
see it pass by me in a blur of greens and oranges
feeling alive "
This doesn't work, "and only in the good way"
I like the ending.
