Illusion


Parked up in a thoughts’ queue;
He digs the colors on his fingertips.
Seeing images of multiple shapes
Like a circus on display.

Lopsided lips with gritted teeth.
Downcast smiles shimmering in the rain.
He loses his thoughts…
As he groans in pleasurable pain.
A decorating vase in life’s illusions.

Author notes

Prompt - "A smile within a frown" 50 words more or less.

Note:"As he groans in pleasurable pain." was used just to show the confusion of happiness and sadness, nothing adult-related.

Thanks for reading!

    This is a Great take on the prompt,
    the first two lines just grabs the reader and pulls them in all through to the end.
    So well done
