Do Not Touch the Water

An original poem

Pixies swirl and twitter

Conjuring memories

I do not want to remember

Pixies disguised as trolls

Is what they really are.

Do not shatter my dreams

I scream

To no one

And everyone

I have ever known

At the same time.

They are precious

And mine.

Let me hide behind

What is really true

Do not fracture my illusion.

I am teased by the

Pixies empty promises.

Do not torment me

Leave me be

To my own fantasy

In the trees.

One ripple on the lake

Will remind me

Do not touch the water…

DO NOT touch the water.
