On the Other Side of the Dream

The other side of the fence was close enough to see, yet distant enough to become a dream. There, seen from afar, the details of an ordinary life took on a heightened radiance: a road stretching into the distance, shimmering lights, cars heading towards destinations that left the imagination free to wander. That glow was enough to conjure, beyond the visible, everything the eyes could not reach. The fence stood forbiddingly between two worlds: one where possibilities had narrowed, and another that the imagination had expanded until its boundaries had almost vanished. As the wait dragged on, the dream ceased to be a wish: it became a necessity. And beyond the fence, the mirage grew ever more alluring as the moment of the leap drew near.
