Loading ...An escape from the present
Neither into the past. Nor into the future.
A break from the stressful day
Neither at dawn. Nor exactly at night.
A temporary shelter away from tension
Neither a heavenly bliss. Nor a pitiful sight.
Like floating on something ethereal
Neither the earth. Nor the sky.
A gateway to a new world of dreams
Neither creativity. Nor a conscious try.
A separation from ourselves
Neither too close. Nor too far-by.
Just darkness at first
Slowly magical colours before your eye
Like mid-summer rain
Nor too damp. Nor too dry.
A normal state of unconsciousness
Yet nor a smile. Nor a sigh.
Indeed a precious gift….
To lie peacefully for a while
If not die.

Good one…
the words can draw streams
yes of thoughts and yes of dreams
the words here are put in a scheme
yes of hope and yes of gleams.
