As I walk in the valley I see the hills all around me. I see and hear the flocks of birds, in the trees, singing their lovely tune. I don't know where I'm going nor do I care. I'm just walking in the most peaceful place in the world. Will I find my way home? I don't care; I never want to leave this place. I see the green grass under me, I feel it as it tickles the bottoms of my feet. I see a single river, flowing into the distance, Looking for something, weaving its way through hills and valleys, In it's never ending search for the ocean. I know I am like that river, but I'm not searching for the ocean, I'm searching for something more important my soul mate. What will happen to me if I don't find My soul mate? Am I destine to live a lonely life, with no to comfort me, No one to take care of me when I'm sick, No one to make me laugh or make me cry. As I walk around in the peaceful valley I hear a strange beeping noise that seems to be coming from all around me. It's quite at first but it starts to grow louder, I know it will take me away from this peaceful place. It gets so loud I close my eyes, then there is a flash of light, As I open my eyes I look around, I see the familiar confines of my room. I feel so disappointed that I lost my happy place, But I know that there is no way I could continue my search there. I have to look in the real world, but I know that if I'm having a hard time, I can always go to that valley, that peaceful valley, And I know it will always except me with open arms.
