The Land Of Dreams

In the land of dreams there was nowhere to rest his feet. He was struggling to keep up with his lady who was vanishing from his sight. He cried.His head was throbbing. She was gone and she was there. Where is she?

A hand clutched his and tightened and dug into his flesh. He was losing himself. Was he swimming in the right direction? Where was she? He turned this way and that.

“ Who are you..You betrayed me..” he cried to her. And her eyes brimmed with tears.

Where is she now? Who was this lady he was looking for? Zaklion did not know. For Zaklion had lost himself . Yet in the Land Of Dreams sometimes he remembered bits and pieces of another land, another person like him. Here he was all alone.

The boys skin was brown like his. That made him happy. Sometimes he saw himself as another in the Land Of Dreams...
