I parked my dream
with my brand new, white cycle
It still whispers through
the pores of my skin, nudging,
reminding: dreams never die.
***
caged in metaphors
content with the flight they took
all dreams have melted.
a cauldron of charred moments –
the only reality.

The first one is full of hope and the second is sad. Two opposites set together in one frame. Beautifully written as always.
