Mythery
As one in a multitude -
Solo -
Existing as self -
Incapable of truly knowing
Outside of my own mind.
Single -
Can see into others or not -
Little middle ground...
My social character
Becoming more and more vague -
I'm not sure of who I am
To other people -
What they see me to be.
Changing,
Misunderstanding.
Dreams:
Not in my sleep
But in waking hours -
My soul groggily mapping the path forward.
The dreams merge with reality,
Romanticism blooming:
Medieval myths
Becoming holy to my soul.
Lone...fool -
I turn myself back to my present -
The reality that is here and now...
It lasts only a little while.
Each time my soul escapes
A vine from my otherworld
Plants itself in my loves
And desires for life.
I open my eyes in a foreign place:
Mists caress the woodlands -
I gaze down from my dwelling;
The waves sound rhythmically on the rocks -
Grey seas mirror the grey skies -
In turn, my eyes reflect
And caress the land -
Knowing it as my own -
Loving it as my true world
Of incorruptible peace and nature.
There is someone to thank for this land -
The only one ever present,
All encompassing.
Dwelling place of the lonely,
Regular sojourn of the searching,
Abode of healing;
Place of change from within
Surrounded by the constant:
A land of perpetuality,
Eternity,
Friendship.
