No Imaginary Thing

My soul bleeds,
It weeps and weeps

Never to know soft Tranquility
Nor to ever stand before the Sea

Perhaps I knew what it was like,
Yet to my dismay

All that was left was
My own fatal design

The Glass of my Fortune,
The Rose of my Love,
The Sword of my Providence

I realized they never actually were beside me
And with realization comes gruesome Reality

When I look to the night sky
I no longer see sparkling wishes

The pond with it’s clear water
No longer holds the mystery of the Unicorn

The turbulent blue Sea
No longer hears the Nymph’s soft melody

My once soft hands
Now appear to be worn by Time

The world I once knew
Has now been replaced with another

Time and Space have bent
All my visions replaced

I feel all alone
No more imaginary Strength

The Horrors circle around
They poke at the edges of my Heart

And no light or imaginary thing
Beckons the way to escape

Now I am all alone

With no thought in this place

Just to realize that my Existence
Is what I myself create

What I do
What I say
What I see
Who are friends
My most beloved Enemies

The absence is fleeting
Reality is a funny thing

But I’ll just have to deal with it
For the time I’ll enjoy myself here

Never to stop looking to the sky
To catch a glimpse of leathery Dragon wings

I wish they could take me up high
Away from where I am now

My soul bleeds
It weeps and weeps.
