Alone in my head
Emotional strings cut
And pulled
Forcing me to wonder
Then the doorway opens
And through the veil I wander

Winding paths
twisted trees
Stars drifting through
The endless midnight sea
A message laid out to read
You come from a world where
False  truths lead
Then two paths revealed to me

On my left I hear
The somber ringing
Of heavens bells
But to the right
Familiar whispers call to me
And I am compelled to follow

Traversing into the dark
Abruptly blinded
By the light reflecting off
The pearly gates of hell
Time comes to a stand still
And I’m left to ponder

Only for a moment

Then through the veil
I wander
