….

It soars through me

under the darkened skies

buzzing night time bumblebee

overhead it dips and flies

lost intimidation i no longer see

tossing and turning long deep sighs

incandescent light shining free

from all those restricting ties

to leave the past there is the key

to find the path where greatness lies

in imagination and things that will never be

live this way until the everything ends and dies

but this transparency to life comes at a fee

you have to leave some behind, so get in your goodbyes

    Confused. Don’t you have to leave all behind?

    This is one of those topics that begs an explanation. I am a fan of symbolism and metaphoric intrigue and in so saying most likely read too much into your language here.

    In any case, nice meter and flow. Great read.

    You are perfectly right. The fee is shifting perceptions. You cannot live in two worlds at the same time
