#WritcoPoemPrompt89
Cosmic and silver lined dreams,
More than a castle in the air,
Crisscrossed shade and sunny gleams,
It's time to disconnect from it and travel somewhere
its time, i know. But why does every part of my being resist it so?
to disconnect would be to go back, to slide back into a reality i would rather not claim as my own. but at last it is only wishful thinking, for my reality is far far different from this image of sunshine and the smell of happiness in my dreams.
reality is cold and it is biting. I dare say it is easier to disconnect with this instead, not the carefully crafted dream land that holds all my hopes and desires.
it might seem cruel, to exist in a plane of peace every night in my dreams, waking up every morning and getting sucked back into the true reality of my situation. There is no sunshine and rainbows, there is no sweet smell of happiness in the air.
it might be cruel but it is the only salvation, the only link to what's left of my ever wavering sanity. it is the only escape.
so travel somewhere else you say? that cosmic and silver lined dream is the somewhere.
