We got away from ourselves to find one another once again
Bodrum, Turkiye — 2024
A few days away
Away from the turmoil of life
From heavy hearts
Simply for a break
A break through into your own being
Accompanied by another part of you
So you can feel whole in your pursuit of freedom
Even for a little while.
Your mind wanders and hopes to see something new
Your body is yearning to learn while it seeks liberty
Liberty in thought, feelings, and action.
The open vast ocean is the answer
An answer that can belittle all your worries
That can make largeness fade.
Laying there watching the waves redound
Takes away a part of your sorrow with every motion.
Feeling the grains of sand from your toes up,
Brings back hope,
Making life the perfect place to be alive.
Sun rays reflect on your skin
Shimmering your true colors
No place to hide now.
You let go,
and you feel safe,
It is just about right now, right here.
He is by you and he can feel it too.
You were brought to a spot where knowledge and surrendering merge
Where the pleasures of the 5 senses collide
And where your connection is brought to true life.
Together you know that growth happens by the ocean
That escapes are not about fleeing
That experiences are never the same,
Every day a new one arose.
You knew that getting away from reality alone yet together was your only way,
Your only way to cope with the rest of the world,
With yourself,
and one another.
We chose salty tastes this time,
where the blue skies and limitless ocean laid,
We got away from ourselves to find one another once again.
