Inhale-Exhale

-by David Blasco Aguilar-

On the paths and roads, illuminating with its shadow the footsteps left by those who dare to visit it.

What is it about it that always brings us back? Winding along its slopes a thousand times, observing the plants, filling our lungs in a coming and going of sensations, which are never repeated and soak us with life.

Inhale-exhale, repeat the cycle. Feel, live, fill my entrails. When I watch you from a distance, you, impassive to time, rise and return my gaze, hiding the sun behind you with a wink, to protect us from the night and to dawn a new radiant day, as if the passing of the days did not affect you and knowing that only you give life, and the world is still at your feet.
