The Parallels
A warm embrace,
A tender caress,
someone by your side,
to love and behold.
A beauty so natural,
In the framework of dreams.
A harsh reality,
A cold awakening,
no one by your side.
There's no love nor warmth,
in the stark reality,
of a life so real.
An ocean so deep,
of love evergreen,
neither rusting nor fading,
with each other to comfort.
Forever you are inlove,
in the oceans of dreams.
A cold betrayal,
An ugly breakup,
A shuttered heart.
No one to hold,
In the harsh reality,
of a life so real.
Now you know,
the two parallels
of dreams and reality,
we walk in between,
sometimes in dreams
others in reality.
