Paradise

wishful thinking...

Beautiful... Serene...
The calm waters lay silent
as the stars in the midnight
skies looked down on me ...
Like a million eyes...

My legs dangled on the edge of
the lonely pier as I gazed at
the empty horizon, the moon
smiling over me with sympathy...
With ease... tenderness...

Too much has happened... The pain...
Regrets and the endless tears...
They all have to leave me for once..
Peace... comfort... bliss..
In this world, they exist...

But in mine, unspeakable... impossible...
Waves crash... and crumble my thoughts...
Nothing... Everything is wasted...
And only in my dreams, in my seas...
... with my stars, will I truly live...
