I live within a Fantasy

A world within my mind

The colors are an ecstasy

So bright they leave me blind

The mythical creatures pass me by

So close that I could touch them

Up in the clouds the dragons fly,

sparkling like a bright gem

I wish that I could be up there

So light, floaty, and free

But the earth just does not care

And keeps ahold of me

A unicorn runs past me with

it's horn a gleaming white

I'm happy that within this myth

I never see the night

I stretch to run to join with him

That unicorn so quick

Straining every single limb

Watching his feet kick

But once again my feet are bound

Shackled down to this earth

Pulling, straining 'gainst the ground

I Pull for all I'm worth

At last, I give in no more strength

The ground begins to shake

A crevice opens just my length

From this mini earthquake

I fall into the underground

The roof above is closing

All around there is no sound

And darkness is imposing

I heard a sound, I this young boy

Some breathing deep and labored

Worried that I'm just a toy

For whom I'd just been neighbored
