Blackness swirls before me, different shades..
A shape begins to emerge from the depths..
A bubble. Oily rainbow reflections show a world like ours..
But not, it's colourful and distorted. Somehow hypnotising my mind,
I cannot look away from it.
Are there people in that world? They surely would look strange..
Maybe big heads, like looking through a magnifying glass. Maybe they
wouldn't be the strange ones.. perhaps it's us.
The bubble bursts, droplets of dew seem to dance through the air, as they slowly fall back to the depths of my brain. They shimmer in an unseen light as they descend.. they almost look icy to me now..
Winter has entered my brain. Full of snow and pine trees. I can almost smell the crispness as I watch the breath puff through the air.. I concentrated on it to hard, and so winter leaves me.
I'm back to the swirling dark, it's almost dizzying with emptiness, so I open my eyes.

I do these contest mainly because to many it gives them an exuse to relax and also to understand better how they're minds are build up. I am no shrink so I can't really read your personality from the poems but I often get a few thanks for giving different people an exuse to relax.
This poem has a deep meaning, and honestly, you brought up something new. Now I do too wonder if there is any humans or life inside our fantasy mind, maybe I sould take some time for myself and try it out ^_^
Thank you for entering this and best of luck
