Melatonin

By: Natalie Cheung

6 millions of dozy hormones,

Dribbling one by one,

Red cell, white cell,

Eventually all filled with dreams,

Floating up the staircase on clouds way above the horizon,

Until my light feet hit the clear sky,

My mind is free.

Feet sinking into the smooth sand river,

Pushing away the door that led me here,

Slowly walking out,

My body relaxed,

Sea-salt filled the air,

Echo filled my ears, and drained out everything else.

The rhythm pushed me further,

Further out into the clear unknown.
