Sanity | Manasa Komaravolu

Your mind is safe, but only,
A mere visitor if you be
To the alluring pleasures
Of the land of fantasy

Dreams are charming
But beware if you see
Time and again
Yourself dwelling on fallacy

Senses are swayed soon
And mind slips easily
Into a sweet stupor
Lulled by false harmony

Trapped in a dream
Lest you be;
Halt your thought, and
Retreat into reality.
