Soul Projection.
I closed my eyes to rewind my memory,
Like I was walking backward,
From light into darkness.
I knocked at the door of Dusk and
Entered into the realm of night.
Birds stopped chirping, and toads crooked.
Then, I saw myself
strolling in meads,
Grapevines pregnant with grapes,
The wind smelled of lavender and
Sun was gracefully shining.

Then someone shook me back Into reality.
Ah! I was in heaven, I screamed.
I looked around & saw angry faces,
People pursuing invisible endeavors,
Rich mutilating the poor,
And strong silently devouring The weak.
Frightened by reality,
I knocked again on The door of Dreams.
Alas! They were closed forever.
