A Boat On The Moon... the best I've written methinks

Take me to that place

The place that overlooks a world I cannot see

A world that I know

A world I once inhabited

But a world I wish to forget

For that world engulfed my senses

I could not eat, I could not sleep, hear,

Smell the sweet scent of November rain on dry sand

Nor could I caress the fabric of the softest silk

For I could not feel

Both the physical and the aphysical

I wanted to escape

So I chose not to see this world

No, I was not in love

I just needed to go to that place

To the boat on the moon

The moon and its transparency

Lets me see through its blue glaze

It shines upon me, hypnotic

Showing a spectrum of indifference

Somewhere to take me to the destination of my dreams

I know once I am on that boat

I will be so close to Utopia

I may sound suicidal

But the paradise I speak of is

Not that of the Heavens

It is a paradise I myself envisioned

Outlined with silver linings

It is a state of mind

And it is my state of mind

That will manifest into my destiny

I know once I am there

I will once again

Dive into the ocean of my senses

As cool as a soft breeze across my cheek

But at the same time as warm as the comfort in my heart,

My body begins to surface

It is carried by the water

And I begin floating, Slowly floating away…

In my boat on the moon
