Mind Portal

Sometimes

I go places in my mind

To lakes and castles

Where centaurs speak in riddles

And fairies braid stories into my hair

~

My mind sees in galaxies

Eyes closed

Heart open

Feeling

Being

~

One part physical

Every other part ether

Floating between realms

Free

~

Living in spirit

Existing in flesh

Bending and weaving through time

~

Echoes of reality

Soften at the edges

Losing its grip

On my mind

~

Grounded in consciousness

Breathing in truth

Releasing chains

That were never mine

~

Steps without footprints

Words spoken in thought

Tears of relief

Cascading into laughter

~

Am I here

Or am I still

In my mind
