"Restlessness" Inspired by Twin Crowns:

Restlessness

Air is only stale and stagnant

trapped inside man made walls,

but even pipes and dams

cannot stop water’s movement.

From clouds and stars

to sand and the very core of Earth itself,

the world will not be stifled nor stilled.

Erosion, growth, shifts, death, birth,

every breath is change.

Is it any wonder that we long

for spontaneity and 

a break from monotonous routines

for the time and space

to forget shoulds and supposed tos

in favor of going into

the ever-changing world around us

to seek out awe

for something more.

The seed of restlessness is planted in our souls,

a gift from the world we live and change with.
