The Real

Eyes stare out,

Into the blackness beyond,

A blur,

A memory,

A dream…

Broken, Burned

A blinding light,

The sign of awake-ness,

A smile,

A truth,

Real, Forever

The mistiness disappears,

With the welled up tears,

The curve commands,

And beckons joy near

The touch,

Surprises Love,

The eyes,

Piercingly warm,

Turn away the doubts,

The fear, the storm

Words melt,

Their meaning already delivered,

The grey no longer a looming cloud,

The lining already silvered

A speechless promise,

Sealed,

A soft kiss,

A long night,

Alone, not lonely

The coloured dream,

No black, no grey,

The elation spilling over,

No bounds, no seam

The real and unreal,

Merge, unite,

The present,

A gift from life.
