Daydreaming Ketten

Daydreaming of rock solid skin,
skin that can take softness away.
Away from what I know is truth,
truth is ignored while daydreaming.

Daydreaming of nightmares flushing,
flushing with a lump in my throat.
Throat that aches to become open,
open while carnal daydreaming.

A very unusual daydream, Melani. This line called for reflection: “ truth is ignored while daydreaming ”. Your final line has staying power. ThkU for sharing. I enjoyed this read today. B blessed., Ghairo.
