Description
On a turbulent shore,
the sky roils gray,
a wild world unfurls,
trading calm for chaos.
A giant tree twisted,
its bark is bright green,
sways with the pulse of the storm,
holding high an ION platform’s edge,
where a green mansion glimmers,
as if born from dreams.
Through rain-soaked glass,
I remember daydreaming,
of gathering pieces of my life,
float them on clouds,
until the winds settle,
and the storm lays down its rage.
A single lightning bolt
streaks across the sky,
a sharp pulse marking danger,
a reminder to move,
to find shelter, while the waves crash—
footsteps splintering in sand,
my heart caught in the swell.
This is my dream, my plan,
to slip through the tempest
and carve a path out of chaos,
to rise above the storm’s roar,
to know that even in that green landscape,
there’s safety, somewhere beyond the clouds.
