Illusions of Reality


The wind ahead was a harbinger of the clouds,
Delivering the omen of the omnipresent doubts,
The smoked windscreen was graying the view,
For a vision of reason in the misty morning dew,

Why is it so difficult, to see the morning sun?
In unhindered light, where shadows don’t overrun
To crowd out the scenery and make the day grim,
Faith, perched atop the hourglass, just below the rim,

You look aside to catch a glimpse of Time,
It speeds along leaving you far behind,
Empty roads don’t beckon you any more,
The sun’s reflection was a mirage that tore
Through the swarm of clouds and tipped the hourglass,
The leap of faith leaves you at an impasse...
