Serenity


The impossible

The never before seen

The wished for

And the too far to reach.

 

An airplane crashed

An anchor sunk

A kite took off in the wind

And the soft clouds left my skin exposed to the sun.

 

Withering away

Burning away

Is the old dead flesh

And the scent of lost hopes.

 

Lay down in bed

Dream of springtime once again

And get ready to be born again

In the morning.
