NOT FAR AWAY ; NOT SO NEAR

in the game of sun shade, life has to go 
through the pleasure and sorrow, 
not sure of the moment, 
you've knitted
dream 
for tomorrow, dreaming brings me on 
the infrequent land often, that's
true but life remains on 
the bitterness of 
realism,
on those affliction time, the mystic smile
fills the barren land with sprouted 
hopes, gorgeous horizon 
crystallizes with new
inflorescence 
color,
hearts wants, that stars to be inlaid in 
place of henna in your delicate 
hands, but it's hard to be
true every dream, so 
dormancy and 
wakefulness goes together, behind to 
your charlatan world, sometimes
you're visible, sometimes I'm
extinct, but pulsation 
touches your 
feeling,
