like a girl,
on her first day of school,
just to show up and find…
school is full of barbies, play-house and dress-up
sweets galore,
of ever varying kind…
reverted back to text book smells
and sugar sweet lips
to tell
the tales
of fabricated stories
protected by a bubble
of which,
only the reality
of dreams come true
could burst…
into the surreal freedom
of dreaming continued...
Dreaming continued ... that is the key. We can't let burst dreams be the ultimate reality.
ReplyDeleteLovely post
ReplyDeleteI think the line "like a girl" sets the tone for the piece. I look at the piece as a return to innocence.

Its difficult to dream when so many of your dreams lay around shattered, the pieces always reminding you of their presence...
