A Pleasing Thought


a pleasing thought
it slips beneath the surface
never to rise again
yet its warmth lingers

perhaps mere pleasant illusion
is sufficient to grant happiness
brief yet supplmented
an army of delusions

the promise of something
wonderful beyond imagining
tugs at the edges
the limits of your mind

the dream forgotten
lingers yet upon waking
loaning the hope
to continue in your life
