Reverie

You have known pleasant dreams
Where nothing is sorrow or as it seems
Where everything is simple and carefree
But now it is time to awaken
To unlock the door with the golden key
And let the real world flash by
The fantasy world is now forsaken
All in a split second, your life has changed
Moments once treasured are now estranged
Don't hesitate; fall back asleep
For those are memories you need to keep
Slip back into restfulness; my voice you will hear
Telling you to await the end that is never here...



-Kaila Nicole

Elegance

A soft and delicate substance
Like white sand beneath toes
And the beams of the sunrise
Drowning a morning bedroom
With the white canopy billowing
Like liquid velvet in the sun
A small lamb moving slowly
Through the greenest pasture
And the smoothest fingers and hands
Stroking along bare, warm skin
Like cold mountain water running over rocks
And laying your head down at night
The cool air slipping and falling in around you
Your eyes falling shut as your body drifts
Drifts to another place with angels and
Wings fluttering in the distance
Pure elegance...
