Poetry reveals my true self.
Upon the pressure of my pen
I become a small galaxy of
experiences, the vastness of me
expands as far as the imagination
can stretch my existence.
Line by line, I slowly claim
as the words become a latter
helping me to design my tapestry
of poetry.
I have and will touch everything;
for we are of many strings
vibrating through the vail
of star dust.
Upon the setting sun I burst forth
inspired by the shadows and deepening darkness.
My mind takes flight with
the slowly fading light as I become
a flame that lights up the night.
The vail is lifted and I am released
upon the darkness that is my poetic
desire, and the night is my lover.

This is part of a series of poems called Into The Vail. I am going to be working on more poems to add to the collection. I am having a burst of inspiration. I am going to let it fly and bring my dream like world to life for others to visit. My personal experiences with poetry and lucid dreams inspire me to write.
