Wishing

Something that appears so solid
But is in fact disappointingly untangible.
Just fluff suspended in the air
Tempting me to take a step
Into my deepest dreams and wishes.
And just maybe
I could fly to a better place.
Oh what a wonderful thing it would be
If I could leave all of this behind!
But just like the clouds, those wishes are
Untangible, untouchable.
Because this is Reality,
And in it I would fall to the
Vast ocean
