Bedtime Story
i bathe my eyes with the vast canopy of starlit sky..
embracing myself as the gentle foams of salty waters caress my feet..
as the autumn breeze swayed me away
back into the lost haven where it all began..
it was a "once upon a time" tale
that never got to it's end..
an interlude of sweet harmony
until the broken strings...
it was a summer snatched off by fall
a coffee that has gone lukewarm
a walk that has reached an unexpected turn
a book that the epilogue has been torn..
it was a dream
perhaps, a marred illusion..
a beauty cloaked in tainted velvet
a silhouette over a fading light...
it was surreal
until the magic dusts vanish
the tale goes into a whirl
and off the bed i fell...
