Of Beauty & Mystery

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

Fantasy holds little power
It is lost to my mind
Fiction rests far from my soul
In a dark drawer of odds and ends
I no longer long for things imagined
Which cannot be real
Cannot be breathed
Or seen, or felt
Having discovered something else
Hidden all along
In front of my eyes
~
Here I find real dragons & warriors
Kings, princesses & castles
Uncharted lands & epic journeys
For reality has, nestled deep within itself
A tall-tale of storybook proportions
Here, in reality’s truth, lies the source
Of fantasy and fiction
Yet tangible and alive
Truth that frees the heart
Awakens the soul
Stirs the spirit
~
This reality has no equal
There exist no purer forms
Of beauty & mystery
No story so alive
So vibrant, so wonderful
No Author so good
