Raindrops of Reality - [poetry]

chaos

With longing in my eyes,
I stare at the ocean.
The bright golden reflection
of sunlight on the soft waves,
a peaceful calm just here around me.

Oh, how I wish for this peace to last forever!
If only I could enclose it in my heart;
a heart made of glass shards pieced together.

I want to see the world with that light reflected in my eyes,
so I walk up to the shore,
too mesmerized to look away from the hue,
and search for calm in the droplets of the sea.

I return with sand between my toes
and an insatiable desire in my eyes.

Take me away from the chaos.
