Joyous Familiar Warmth

Coming to terms with reality. plus more.

I sat eating the food I prepared

I ate the last few bites

The lack of fear amplifies

Making me eternally secure

At least in this moment;

Not much to recognize far or near

A strong glow of light overcomes me for a short time

Is it? Yes, it must be the candles

They fume

Emitting the visions of what was once

As the feeling of warmth engulfs

It finds a cozy spot to rest in peace

A smile on my face is the sight of me

Enjoying the feeling that slowly lingers upward inside

From the bottoms of my toes to the ends of my fingers

It’s nostalgic, infectious, and somewhat familiar;

 

Let me explain even further;

It feels like the blanket laid upon you at the time when you were young

With the hottest of coco brewing, having all the worries turn to distant strangers

Each with vacant black eyes you cannot seem to recognize 

 

Rejuvenation occurs only in this rustic, modern, well-lit, office you call home

A space with no excess planes

This allows your vision to reach past the forests and to the stars

A time which else nothing matters

A time when you lack all the care

What’s this?

Warm freshly baked gingerbread cookies?

A knock with distant cries

Company arrives…

 

The wooden beams strip, nails pop

The secret is out

I start to cough

Realization regains

While the black dots start to spot back in

Hysteria emerges; the needle goes flat

An electro shock burns all acquired joy

As I regain of all of my hate

Or the glare beyond limitations’ gate

My wish to return back to the joyous coma-like state

Was gone unheard, unanswered

 

I kept up a repeating whimper

But it must, have been too late
