Resounding

RESOUNDING

If I asked without fear
Would you lead me into the void
Show me the wonders hidden
In a world not of our making
Would you capture the stars
Gently place them in my heart
Scorch my soul with delicate precision
Would you strip away the fractured part of me
Only you can understand.

Rainbows and fairy tales
Only trails for the foolish
To follow unaware
A digital number unimaginable
To the mind at large
Clouds pass in silence
And I watch mesmerized
By their freedom of flight
To a place I long to be.

Why must the eluded be the one followed
Why must the confused be the one empty
Why do I scream into the dark unknown
Why do I feel what I cannot touch?
