_reality.

By

Reality is fickle

As fickle as a flame

Do you understand this?

Do you see that in this world we must walk blind?

Guiding our steps with shadows

Shadows cast by our mind

Do you understand that the light that guides our journey comes from within?

Not without.

What is love

But a blind man’s voyage

One he glady sails on

He sings as he’s driven by the tides

Love me forever or never

Miss.

But it ends because of the ficklenesses of life

Do you remember that?

And now he has to converse with shadows

And clocks and spirits

He has to find a radar, a compass

But its fallen too deep into the river

Where it can’t be reached

It fell when on the boat he was singing

Love me forever or never

Miss.


P.S I.love.you

(Forever)

    This is beautiful. I have dedicated this morning to exploring your blog and this is my first read. I am moved and I am definitely sharing this.

    By the way, Love me forever or never…and the postscript…why do I suddenly feel like I know you more than I do?

      Thank you so much Michael 😄

      Haha that’s not an impossible assumption 🙂 it’s maybe the shared sentiment of writers
