Illusion

Illusion



My boat is still

No breath of wind

No sign of land

No shade …

No wand!



The fog

That hangs uncertain

At the edge of my feelings

Is like a rope

Around the neck …

Of Time

No tick of hope

No chime

No echo …

Of illusions

And no sound …

Of rhyme!



Eclipsed by awe

The heart has lost

The charm; the glow

For, there is dark

And there is snow

And there is fog

That hangs uncertain …

In the flow

Of running circles

We call them “Time”!




Author's Notes/Comments: 

I was alone at the beach on a very humid and hot afternoon. I felt hollow and aimless.
