An Illusion

 

Fallen leaves are lifted up by the breeze.

A silent void awakens on the bark of the tree.

 

Twilight veils up a deep dark curtain

wiping off the far away footprints.

 

I look around. 

The sea by my side is not visible anymore. 

I can only hear the roar.

 

I look back at my abode.

It's not too far.

But I can't walk down there.

 

The sandy realism has intensified

and I am lifted by something beyond reason.
