Distraction

18 May

I could lay a thousand hopes on the ground

And lay on their comfort whilst looking at the stars

Lost in the heat of inspiration

Like the sparkle of each, is a gift of imaginations wealth

But like an uneven surface, I’m unsettled in my thoughts

You ruffled the pillow that my head rests upon

When clear as cloudless skies, you disturbed my night sky

And lay next to me in my dream

Like you were supposed to be there

But to tell is a mistake when vision is interfered

Pretending to anchor a heart can damage

When eventuality reveals

But logic and confusion can be misinterpreted

A tickle of faith in the mind to tease

With a sigh and gentle blow, a flame can disappear

And emotion can, for a second, stand still
