Mirage

Poetry

Photo by Jennifer Lo on Unsplash

Staring at the twinkling twilight,
An oasis of memories engulfs me,
I blink the moisture clouding my eyes
To see a blanket of clouds hiding your smile.

I blink to see your outstretched hands,
then,
To see you engulfed by the fog
in the mountains at dawn.
All a mirage.

Based on illusions.
