stumbling, lost, oblivious to the forest's beauty
you happen upon a small black portal
at the base of a tree so ancient it seems immortal
now's the time to decide if you go for the ride.
comfortably numb or pushed to the limits?
or perhaps being shown no such limits exist
full speed ahead into the unknown
catapulted to a crossroads of dimensions
physical eyes closed, enhancing your perceptions
a motherly figure is there, exuding love and care
as you lie still, paralyzed with awe
undeniably, this is what you were seeking.
suddenly...
you are whole.
Think back to the desert, before this river of joy
flowed from your eyes,
allowing this oasis to spring up and thrive
The lack of rain, sun causing blistering pain
When you return from this voyage
Does home seem different?
