•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•° You and your friends were on a hike. It was great! You were exited! With quarantine, it had been hard to get together. You had a great time! You went to a creek, joked, talked, played... but towards the end of the hike, a strange feeling of nostalgia came across you. You spot some trees at a perfect arch, and joke about how you wish it could take you away to another world. No one hears you. You continue your hike, and your still having fun of course.. but you get Lost in thought. You just keep walking, and dont notice as your freinds voices turn into the soft chirping of birds. You think of an amazing joke, and look up to tell your friends, when you realize they aren't there. You turn around- surely you could just go back, your friends will be worried. You run back the way you came from. Or so you thought. While Lost in your mind, you went all directions, not just straight. But you ran straight back anyways. Back to your friends. Back to.. back to the world.. you slowed down, until you eventually stopped. The chirping of birds, and the rushing of a creek sounded so nice.. the now-cool weather was amazing.. did you really... want to go back? You had almost nothing to look forwards to. Your friends had been growing apart from you, corona had ruined your life, you missed the past, hated the present and wanted to avoid the future... you could stay here. In the forest. Where its peaceful. You looked ahead if you. You recognized that rock, you weren't far from the trail. But.. maybe you could stay. Your friends didn't need you. You should stay. You turned to look deeper into the forest... maybe if you were in a better state of mind, you would've thought this stupid. How would you survive in the wood alone? Wouldn't you miss your friends? Your home? But... in the state you were, nostalgia still hanging in the air, like a poison only taking effect on you... you went deeper. You sped up, until you were running. You ran, and ran. Away from the world. Away from people. Away from problems.. you were Lost. • and you would Stay Lost • °°°°°°°°°°•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••°°°°°°°°°°°
