First Molding Entry For Paled Lasting:
Sleep : An Adventure
Soft eyelids trimmed with lashes fall down upon brown orbs.
A curtain which cradles my eyes.
The noises around me heighten.
My breathing. The barely audible hum of the bedside clock. The beating of my heart. The quiet rustle of the blankets being entwined with my body.
All my senses are sharpened for a fleeting moment before they are muffled to silence.
As the silence is borne within me, a surreal world wakens my hidden senses.
My eyes see colours which range from the dullest grey to the most blazing crimson.
My nose detects scents that rush into me.
My skin feels the real and the unreal.
My ears hear sounds that confuse yet enlighten me.
My mouth tastes forbidden liquid kisses and secrets.
An adventure unfolds.
Again and again.
One chasing the other.
Each desiring to match or outdo the other.
For a chance to entertain me while I slumber.
