The dissatisfaction I feel,
Makes me empty.
I am numb to my surroundings;
The daily chores of my life are neverending...
I want to scream!
Run away into the sunset-
Bath in the ocean every night under the moonlight.
I want to cast my clothes into the forest,
Dance around the underbrush like an ephemeral sprite,
Into the dark and twisted paths of the everafter;
Where fiction becomes reality.
I want to swim with mermaids,
Feel the shells entwined with their hair-
The scales of their tails;
Wrap myself in seaweed and sleep among the beasts.
Show me a way to satisfaction,
Adventure and awe,
Bring me to the place where the sky meets the earth,
That unknown corner of the waking world.
