Location Unknown

I once found myself in a curious place, of which precise locations I did not know.

How I happened on this paradise is also something I could not show.

It was a heaven in all its beauty, and solace, passion and life.

In this unknown location I found myself, without a single trace of strife.

The days were long, and boundless, stretching from white shores to heavens eyes.

Stealing my every waking thought with its most beautiful alluring guise.

I spent what must have been a lifetime on the shores of this endless place.

Never knowing of what was to come and the horrors I would face.

For as I was still a child, I sought to venture on, for more.

Slowly losing sight of the beauty of its shores.

Now time has moved on and I have lost this precious place of mine.

All the beauty and secrets it holds, all but lost to the pages of time.

But I will always dream of those moonlit shores, that calmed my deepest dread.

This everlasting beauty, now locked inside my head.

For it was my paradise, something to call my own.

Always I will be searching for this location set unknown.
