A sunny day for self reflection.
Inside the woods I love so dearly, fresh air filling my lungs, picturesque beauty.
it was trees, trees, bushes, rocks, a man, and me.
I felt natures presence in my body.
standing alert, pulse beating like a rabbit stalked by prey.
he lingered, close, mind ablaze with stories of fallen sisters.
too many just like this.
I came for peace.
I was told to have a chaperone.
I was told I needed protection.
Yet... we're equal
?
