Dust rises in greeting as I return;roads have long memories
Every bend carries the imprint of who I once was
Grass leans closer curious how I’ve changed
Time too listens
I walk slower now—not from weariness but reverence
The horizon hums with unfinished sentences
My heartbeat syncs with distances I once feared
Roads notice courage
Mountains shift their posture recognizing me
Wind circles my shoulders like an old companion
Silence moves beside me not as emptiness but as trust
I feel claimed by the landscape
When the path turns gold in the evening light I understand:
This road remembers
Not my failures
Only that I kept walking
