Tomorrow's Masquerade


I thought perhaps to steal the myth

and hoard away the dream

 

Mirages fade with pretense lost,

things never what they seem

 

A future darkness redefined,

the past still yet to know

 

Intention vested—moments spent

with nowhere left to go

 

(Dreamsleep: April, 2021)
