DELUSIONS ARE LIKE TREES IN THE FOREST

I could see your hands glowing, in the dark they stood out like like a lighthouse along the southern coast.

I think you honestly believed you could heal, but delusions are like trees in the forest.

I feel for you, honestly, but please let go of the dreams, and fast.
