Written for Whispers of the Soul Contest
Lost in a world of illusions
Wishing for scents of red apples
Under a tree of deceptions
By myself - I fight my battles

So many people living alone
I guess I know why
We all want a "comfort zone"
But one must try, and try, and try

Have courage, persevere; patience
Sun again will shine upon me
Pistachio dreams, and good silence
The sweetest dreams can still be

I'm aware of time
All of it - the package comes quickly
Steamrolling you as a dime
Don't stop, go on; swiftly

A big, fantastic world
To feel, taste and uncover
Why stay home, hide; curled
Many things out there to rediscover

You told me things, and hurt me
I counted until three, sometimes till ten
But you - never able to see
Understand. Love. Not even then

No is a very short word
Yet capable of fixing long issues
So now I'll fly away like a bird
You were always oh so vicious

The sky. The future. Do something
Even skin my knee on eternity
Compelling power to change everything
I know I will be happy heartily.
