Dreamer

Dreamer

 

 

A dreamer,

in the house of shadows.

Living in a cell, in a jail,

controlled by his own mind.

 

They never become words,

never become sentences,

never become stories.

His mind never overcoming the fear.

The fear he would reject himself.

 

The light growing dimmer and dimmer,

until it is simply a spark.

One day,

he blows the spark out.

 

The jail,

gone.

The cell,

gone.

The house of shadows,

gone.

His mind,

gone.

The dreamer,

gone.

 

But alas,

his fear is finally gone.
