The sky fills me with wonder

The sky fills me with wonder

Even though science has taught me

That it is made of chemicals and gasses 

My heart and childhood

Still long to hope

The clouds are candy floss

And that faries control the weather

But suddenly

Reality pores over me 

Like hot water from a shower

It washes all the hope and wonder out of me

Like shampoo

And yet again I am left 

Staring at the dull green leaves

That dangle from the matured, weaving branches

Of monotonous, aged trees

Deceived by my own imagination

I leap, spiral and run 

To a place where I am myself

The ever so familiar scent of tree and purfume

Mix in my lungs

My taste buds yearning for more

Like a kiss of cocaine

I am addicted to the walls

Doors

Floors

Bedrooms

Bathroom

Kitchen

The laughter, infectious

The love, warm

Never leave

For I will be lost without you.
