Sit back and watch the fairies play

 


It can sometimes feel

like your pathway is set.

You can try to step off,

but you keep on returning back.

It's like a mind trap.

It encloses you in,

even when you think you’re out,

it's just around you like vultures circling,

ready to leave you

slain, stained

in a blood-soaked scream.

It always leaves you

at the gates

to the land of the strange,

it doesn't matter

what variables you change.

 

Light is consumed

by the mind trap fiends,

creepy beings,

that want to devour your feelings

and suck out your dreams.

They try to keep you

following the twisted path,

wordlessly saying it's the only way,

speaking menacingly in silent stares,

their words seep into your ears.

Timidly you trudge on,

too afraid of what could be near.

 

As you walk, feet bleeding,

aching feelings

shooting up your spine.

The beings just out of sight

are thinking

it's almost time to dine.

But you plough on,

eyes always looking forwards,

watching the pathway

beckon you along.

 

Light doesn't grow

on trees, but sometimes

the sun shines through the leaves,

showing other paths that you could reach.

You take a step away

from the route you are on,

ignoring the creeping fiends

and their vicious songs.

Follow the twinkling light beams

towards fairytale happy dreams.

The land of the strange can wait.

Fate has a way

of putting us on that path again,

but until that day I'll just sit back

and watch the fairies play.
