dust words

words were like dust to me
dancing on the rays of sunlight
mesmerising, captivating, enchanting
my world stopped there
as the dust came to life
in a make believe fairy world
laughing, playing, having fun
they took me to far away places
worlds i had only dreamed of
became my reality
and then the night came
darkness enveloped my world
words were lost in a void
dust disappeared, words escaped
into the night
all meaning was lost
and i was left
staring into nothing
