Fantasy rides status quo

In silent drumbeats of depression throbs a fractal life of no "visualization". dandelions fluffing in howling winds fight with Halloween "hallucinations". behind the dusk of a sealed doorway lies a vast empty space of no sun-showers... I need a spaceship to take me to a place I have never been many lightyears away to another planet. Where timeline untangles and "dream" floats treading "whimsy" paths by moonlight. Where crystalline castles of "imagination" build chimeras over craterous depths. Where a wandering soul can escape into "reverie" flights of a wishful heart. Where in pure beauty of the still night dazzles a chest of rubies in onyx eyes. Coding messages in long forgotten songs through rows of roses, Will I get my Mozart? In foams of a sea, only sorrow and suffering, Will my status quo change to a happy ending?

A very heartfelt poem this is poetic soul, i can feel the longing and the urge to be where no one else is and to start over, especially in lines such as “ I need a spaceship to take me to a place I have never been many lightyears away to another planet.” I also love the lines “ through rows of roses, Will I get my Mozart? In foams of a sea, only sorrow and suffering,” theres a musicality to the emotions you’ve expressed in such eloquence and in an effortless manner using all the prompt words so well! Nailed it. Best wishes! Sending you light always
