Clarity

I am lost in a daydream.

My mind is in the clouds.

Only you can pull me back

On to the solid ground.

But, nowadays it’s not so bad

To be released from fantasy’s grasp.

By your side, my vision is clear

And I see that life is its own dream.

Like the pixie dust sparkle of your eyes,

And the enchanted tangles of your curls.

Or the way your smile speaks without words

And your touch puts me under a spell.

I am no longer afraid to face

Reality and the shadows I saw in it.

For you’ve taught me to look to the sky

And dance in the magic of the stars
