For a while,
wake me not,
from deep slumber,
let me live,
in the space of,
sweetest dream.
I am surrendering,
my reality for a lie,
I am in love with.
I know it is transitory
certainly fragile!
Perhaps a mere illusion
of a desiring mind.
Or may be an unived
cherishing wish!
It is winsome
purely whimsical
unreal though..
Yet, I love the way
it woos my senses and
captures my heart.
For a while
wake me not
from deep slumber.
Once again let me live
with all unrealistic glimpses
I am in love with..

” Unrealistic Glimpse ” , is a skilfully crafted ,contemplative work that uses the well worn dream/illusion trope well.
However,on a minor EDITORIAL NOTE, the final 3 lines require attention.At present , ” and makes me long ,to live with those,” does not make sense, What precisely is being referred to by your use of the word “those” ? And the use of quotation marks around the final phrase left the reader baffled.Why use quotation marks and what is meant by the term unrealistic glimpse ?
Together with the accompanying , ” Oh My Poem ” ,it heralds the arrival of Destiny Poets’ International Community of Poets’ newest registered member..Welcome Maaya Nair !
Thank you Louis for your review about my poem…I noticed the error I made while conceiving the above 3 lines of my poem….About the title, Unrealistic Glimpse…I felt dream is not real and it is just a glimpse, we get when we are asleep…hence I opt to use the above title for my poem…Thanks & regards once again….
