Beyond What Is Real

I wander

Down corridors of shadow

Through doorways made

From the darkest dreams

And wait in rooms

Painted in the colours

Of my nightmares

 

I wonder

How long I have spent

Lost within this labyrinth

And how much longer

Until I escape

Until I wake

And return

To reality

 

But deep down

I know the answers

To both my questions

“Forever”

For I am awake

And lost inside

My own wonderings

And wanderings

 

No hope of escape

Of a return to reality

For my mind exists

Far beyond what is real
