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

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
