A light down a darkened path
beckons me to follow
As I approach
it flickers
making me stop, wait

Again it calls
I continue forward
not knowing what lies beyond
the blackness that settles around me

A light so bright, yet not
I cannot see past it
My eyes play tricks
seeing only what my mind allows
Fantasy settles in

It lures me
and I walk, following
unaware that I am pursuing
My darkest dreams
my biggest fears

I turn around, afraid
and find nothing
but the darkness in which I began
Yet sounds and shadows engulf me
in a sensory overload

And I freeze, unable to comprehend
all that is there
and not
Only to realize my existence
in my own imagination

One must always dare

To walk the path less trodden

Where dreams lie in wait

dreaming_
Steps beyond my wildest dreams

Pieces missing in between

The path I walk to yonder lands

Across the bridges many spans

Spaces where my mind must leap

To find my future, there to keep

What is so grand beyond this place

The moon, the sun and all of space

Shall carry me from yesterday

And renew the dreams once cast away

 

 

This photo was a word Prompt from Morgan of Book and Volume.  She supplied the picture, we supply the words!!  Here’s the link to Morgan’s #WordPrompt.  Thanks, Morgan.  This was fun! 🙂

This path that leads to waters free

Kept hidden just beyond the trees

Is where I come to pass the day

And gather thoughts that come my way

I watch, as nature again renews

Together, with the sea’s cerulean blue

A place, where I can just daydream

My space, where life is so serene
