This Illusion

Reaching out to it
Grasping something
Clutching the illusion
Which shatters my gaze

Put it shinning anywhere
Rays of colorful light
All sorts of wonder I follow
To find thr point of escape

Closer to the source
My eyes squinting to see
Frozen images and the stillness
Of sound pausing the moment

After sometime and the moments passed
I recognized my thoughts
With my blurred vision
I conclude this to be a dream

Surrounding me, a bright lit sky
Begans to dim as the light
Starts to fade from my sight
So I see nothing but the night

Everything is hazy now
The images,the illusions,this dream
Of mine comes to a close
As I wake up
