Beyond land and time,
under the glance of the Divine,
as the voices of the wise reveal,
this is no fairytale or legend,
but a truth not to conceal.
There, where magic and reality entwine,
he who listens will apprehend
this contemplation which may transcend.
The righteous king or the imprisoned princess,
the noble knight or the unfortunated beggar,
the impish jester or the wicked enchantress
they all are masks, symbols so far,
as every tale speaks indeed
with messages, the seed
of life, the way it is.
Protagonists of our own story,
every step, a gracious movement of the quill,
each day, a page in the book's will,
being this world a library
which shelves whisper the adventures
that occur in the hidden myths,
containing thus the spirits
of the characters of every kingdom still.
Romances, tragedies may be found,
tales of justice or mercy perhaps abound
treason and conspiracy, journeys and battles,
every type of anectode could appear
under the gleam of the candles.
Explore, live, have no fear,
as life is a tale, a story
in which you encounter both failure and glory.
Because our tale would not take place
without a dragon to defeat
or an evil witch to face,
and the daily miracles
we could not appreciate
had not the obstacles
interfered in our fate.
Losses, tears, they are not a mistake,
they are the shadows in our way,
that teach us how to be brave
while the joys and smiles of the day
will not forsake
the hopes and dreams
of those who wish to save.
Feelings and emotions,
sensations and thoughts,
echoes of destiny, companions
of the directions chosen along the odyssey
where anything is possible
if you listen to your heart,
have faith and liberate your imagination,
the truest art.
Even in the darkest moment,
lost in the depths of a forest
or wandering under a starless sky,
do not ever resign...
Because our tale would not take place
without a dragon to defeat
or an evil witch to face,
and the daily miracles
we could not appreciate
had not the obstacles
interfered in our fate.
