Paper dreams

As I wander,

listlessly, 

the dawn winds,

blow petals,

through my hair.


They call to me,

oh so softly,

gently teasing out

all sorrows, the

thoughts of this

wretched world.


I envelope,

my lonely soul

into their cocoon,

of slowly cascading 

lines.


I care not for 

money,

I do not pine

for wealth.

The chains I break

will never capture me.

I have broken those bonds

of clay and iron.


Instead, enslaving

myself to thistles and weeds,

those of paper dreams.
