I long to be feral again. 

To explore the wilderness 
And forget about the next status update
Or the stress of making money-
They'll never make me happy.

Instead, I should
Walk barefoot through the moss
And remember what it feels like
To be at peace with nature

I should bathe in the river
And let the cold water
Wash the stains of modernization
From my skin

I should pick flowers,
And create bright bouquets
To line the pathways
Of my soul

I should listen to the birds
As they gossip and chatter
And fill the silence
Of my mind

I should lean against the trees,
And let their strength support me
Through all the different stages
Of my growth

But most of all, 
I should remember
My place in this world-
Not to live behind a screen
But to be one with nature

As I was meant to be.
