The Joy in Discovery

I'm hallucinating again, I'm dreaming again

i'm in a field of knee-high grass, I see Arienette

she was almost hidden in the thickness of it all

the sun burns above us in anger as i approach her

"Why are you laying in the grass, don't you want to be found?"

she looks up at me, and i see that she's crying

"No, I don't, go away before it's too late...." she moans.

the sun gets close, and the field around us starts to burn

"Please!" I say, "I can't let you go! Not just yet!!"

the sun burns away the invisible strings and the grass rots away

and I'm back in my room writing as fireworks go off
