Once Upon a Daydream~ He drifts on the outskirts of beautiful, part of it belonged to him, he'd helped build it, with the mighty hammer of his heart. Turned away from possibility, as her scent filled his imagination, perhaps he couldn't see past tomorrow, beyond the comfortable conformity, obligation stiffened his upper lip. He chose instead the familiar, the safe niche, sometimes where regret can pierce the soul. But she knows he loses himself in dreams, travels field and meadow gathering poems among the wildflowers, as he rolls in with the clouds, a touch of sky upon his tongue. © Augustsky |

Oh this was amazingly beautiful to me this morning. Happy to read you this morning, ~Skye. "Turned away from possibility, as her scent filled his imagination," Made me think of the Bible verse: "Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death" for some reason. Scary to get a glimpse of perspective on how easily we allow our minds to be lured from things in life that are utterly more more important, or at least should be. |
