Skyline

Like an elusive dream-

You see it from far as one big picture but as you get closer and closer the picture gets blurred.

You forget what you came for

You forget what you’re looking for.

When you reach your destination, the place that you thought you were after

It’s all too singular.

You don’t know where it fits in the big picture that you had dreamt.

You keep trying to reach it, you keep trying but it always escapes from your grip at the last minute, it’s

like holding a fist full of sand- the tighter you try to hold on, the faster it escapes; the closer you get the

faster it dissolves.

It doesn’t look all that shiny, it doesn’t hold that place in your heart that it once had

So you take a step back and go back to admiring it from far.
