Who knows what is on the other side? What monsters lie lurking beyond the stone walls and multiple doors Perhaps long-forgotten secrets you and I have hidden away Erasing unwanted memories from our minds forevermore Will we find heaven the oh so sought promised golden land? Or fires of the unspoken one waiting that scorch us and burn Is condemnation to the netherworld our unchangeable fate? Without us would the world continue to turn? Take a glance and tell me what is on the other side Is it a plane of my mind which some say does not exist For lack of imagination, some cannot see it Others do boring dullards but simply resist Are their stars made of glass on the other side? Do emotions flow like fine wine? Do the sea waves roar with song green and salty? Or will they die with the passing of time? Are there precious stones strewn about the ground like sand diamonds? While a blue moon hangs high in the sky. Is the evil of mankind waiting and laughing? On the other side For a seized opportunity to overcome us all Are all our desires fulfilled completely? Or do the shadows reign dark and tall? I believe will forge ahead and go around the corner Instead a sitting like a smiling fool on a self-made shelf I will take a look closer look at the other side And decide if I will travel there myself All Rights Reserved @ Tammy M.

The Other Side
Who knows what is on the other side?
