Reality Poem by Chel Yvonne

I walked along
Along the ever-foreboding sky,
Admire with me- sunlit patches mask reality
How easy to walk
To wander along the darkened path
Lit, caressed with a candle of fantasy
-a dream, a breathe away from who you are
As trust, like mist reveals;
Crowns grass with wisdom
Time opened up my eyes
As pieces fell
Visions of utopia fade
Change;
Reveal; I watch as you fade into morning’s light
Façade, collapsing; an icy dream melts into a pool of tears; yet Ensnared,
I stare into your eyes

A penny for a dime
Mysterious love—
Rain;
Cascading on my shoulder
Blinding to the eye
Tattering, incessantly,
“visions grow fainter”
Keep reminding me
“It will be”

Open your eyes
Love sees pain
Does not strive solely for personal gain
But a reach into the heart, carries, walks with you
Feels first, beyond itself
