Sweet Escape
![Picture](/uploads/2/9/6/6/29663797/9028037.jpg)
School was out and
we had been outside since
late in the evening. Stealing each other’s shoes
and running down the street.
Sweet harmonizing laughter and
excited yells filled the air. As the
once crimson, maize, and violet sky
became black and the stars shined bright,
our energy quickly faded.
The little valley was only lit by the
playful moon and we found ourselves
sprawled out on
the cool and rough road.
Silence settled over us as we
swatted at mosquitoes and played
with the multicolored kittens.
We lay there for over an hour.
Hardly flinching at any noise.
It was exactly what we needed
to escape our hectic lives.
