EMBOSSED

I felt as if it was me; getting

Lost in the woods. Searching for

Wild berries and fruits,

And all the things I could. I

Felt the breeze brush past me,

I felt it pierce my ear; I pulled up

My blanket further, Stuck

In the arms of pricking fear.

i could not absorb the light around,

I felt as if in pure darkness,

I sucked my thumb and frowned

A bit, and continued to squeeze

Into the warmness. Word after word,

I felt it itch me, As I skimmed through

The pages; The musty smell of the old

Leaves, got dissolved into the Scent of

Purple Sages. I still found myself

Embedded into the cluster of words;

Little by little, as second by second, I

Started to fall asleep. But still those

Memories of the deep dark forests

Flashed into my dreams.
