The Dichotomy of Feelings

Last night I dreamt of myself with an eye that seemed to see a full spectrum rather than an outward vision, I dreamt about the resilient woman I have always dreamt of becoming; myself today.

My scope of vision contained only a door. The door was very alluring, every time I try to reach its grip, I wake up.

The sand dunes before me seemed endless, I could feel my rapid heartbeats. Every muscle in my body was tensed from this unfamiliar reality.

The Waters of the Lake

In the waters of the lake Where the crystals rested I looked at my reflection Framed with my hair falling down towards the lake   In the quiet atmosphere Only I heard noises Hammering screams Of all the signs I refused to see And mystical whispers Reminding me of the exquisite rainbow, "It is bound...
