Heresy of Creation

Sometimes, I feel as though I were a god.

From my hands spring creations,

Something blooms where once only pieces lay.

Words and cloth and ink,

Become worlds I manipulate at whim.

I have my own power,

I am invincible,

Unstoppable.

Some voice inside me whispers,

"You've gone to far,

Come back, come back."

But I go farther into the forest of my own delusions.

The thorns push at me,

But I am a god,

I do not bleed.

Again the voice calls me.

"Turn back, turn back"

But what lies behind me,

Besides dreaded mortality?
