Encroachment


I sit here like the fog, dense
Peering through the window.
The trees silhouetted,
Yet so alive.

The fog stops the worlds turning,
People exit, the fog enters,
Like walking through a curtain.
A veil to the world,
A sadness that allows
Us to question our very existence.

Walking through the veil,
Expecting to reach the other side,
The translucence allows us,
Only into its freedom.
