The inspiration came from the italian poet Francesco Petrarca, while i was studying for my Italian Literature exam...
it reflects my state of mind


The Awakening

Fragile Illusions
reduced into Dust
One touch of Reality
makes them Vanish
Encountered by Sloth
Life becomes Unreal
like the Ethereal fumes
of the Sweetest Scents
Your whole Being
is troubled by its Mist
The Life of a Dream,
dreaming of Reality
A million Choices
yet neither seems right
The distant Awakening
is Buried in the past
