Sunrays through the canopy,
the cool morning breeze and the birds
greet you with a soothing assuarance.
This facade is broken the moment your first
drop of sweat hits the uneven ground. One moment
you find yourself negotiating a steep decent and the next,
you're on all fours trying to get a foothold.
Deadfalls and algae carpeted rocks threaten to twist your
ankles the second you let you guard down. Watching closely,
eyeing your every move.
Try, but every bend, every turn, every climb and descend will
look the same. Map in hand, compass in the other, walk & lift the veils
that the forest has blinded you with.
Eat, for the energy your body hungers for.
Drink and quench your thirst.
Before you know it, you've committed your gravest mistake.
You find yourself on the highest point in the vicinity, without food
and water.
Are you really who you want to be?
