Fantasy Love
I’m hidden away in a secret place.
It is in my mind where there is no trace.
No trace that I have even visited.
No one gets in unless listed.
Currently, there is only me on that list.
This fortress of solitude exists.
It is only for me to use.
I escape all my stress and choose
to be by myself in solitude.
What is this? Something scratching at the door.
How did this happen? It’s never happened before.
It is you wanting to be let in.
My resistance is wearing thin.
If I let you in it could destroy me.
You could be the Kryptonite to my powers that be.
It is a gamble to my very existence.
To comply would be to drop all resistance.
Let you romp freely through my mind.
With no dead ends of any kind.
This would create a bond.
Stronger than any magic wand.
The two of us would be as one.
Provided you share with me some.
Open up your mind to me.
Let me wander and be free.
Maybe I will find the love there.
That, in my mind, is everywhere.
The love I have for you.
Do you have the same for me too?
I see it now.— It is there.
We are off to all we can bare.
To a land beyond the sea.
Beyond the stars, just you and me.
We will sail the river of hope.
Laughing and singing , I give you a poke.
Just a light tap in fun.
Then we will be on the run.
Jumping from one giant mushroom to another.
Just having fun. So much in love with each other.
Finally, we will return to the fortress of solitude.
A new one, not created for a multitude.
But, created for only you and I.
No one else can ever pry.
All I need is you and you alone.
You feel the same about me, you’ve shown.
There we will stay in ecstasy
Till we go again to the world created for only you and me.
