A mountain range of rubble

Updated: Aug 25, 2020

When I stretch my hands towards the manifestation of my dreams,

it crumbles

into chummy little sugary bits,

leaving the ruins of a million dreams at my feet.

I wander around

lost in the forest of dreams,

through the ferns, the thorns

and the drying petals of the hibiscus

looking for my home,

something far away

never within the reach.


When I stretch my hands

towards the manifestation of my

dreams,

it crumbles

into chummy little sugary bits,

leaving the ruins of a million dreams

at my feet.


I hear the echoes,

cascading all around

the wailing of a dying mockingbird.

Still

I persist, scream

even cry,

but the place of illusions perishes

once and for all

it truly vanishes.


And amist the ruins somewhere

lies my soul

in these very ruins.

Thus,

I'll forever belong.


-Naionika
