my heart...

The lilypad

It was the first dream I've had in a week

I was alone in a forest
In front of a beautiful pond
I feel I was sent to scourge
In this place I belong

The pond was as still as glass
It made me peacefully calm
But one thing that I couldn't grasp
Was why there was lily pads on the pond

I didn't know if I could trust it
But decided I'd take a leap
And no one understands more than I do
That curiosity tends to take my lead

So I took a leap of faith
And flew through the air
But when I felt the leaf
I realized what was there

A hidden Atlantis
As big as the eye can see
That held its beauty
With its mystery

So I jumped into the glass
But little did I know
That I truly did pass
And it swallowed me whole

I could breath
So I did
I could see
So I did

The water was warm
But refreshing
It shook me to the core
So exciting

I swam through the swarms
Through the life around me
It seems to me that when I leap
Happy times surround me

And when I float right back to the top
Something seems to surprise me
Through the glass I see another world
One that's not foreign to me

Then the glass breaks
Crystallizing into trillions of shards
And when I look past the crystal rainbow
One cannot begin to understand the hurt in my heart...

I was awake

My world was not like the real world
So so cold and fierce outside
Trust is fragile in the real world
In my world I swim deeper and deeper inside

I know it's hard to understand
And don't worry I've tried
The mirror that represents my life
Is not the whole truth that confides

I am more than just what seems outside
I am the comforting, mysterious world beyond the glass
And when I realize who I am
I smile

*Hello again! I feel like I'm floating in a big theater filled with water... Anyway! Thank you for reading my poem!:)
