*Land Of Mirrors*
Let me take you there
To my land of sadness
Where the drops of grief
tenaciously
each night fall down like silver dew
without a sound
Let me take you to my land of joy
Where the velvet pillow of darkness
sometimes
gets pierced by gentle rays of moonlight
creating memories
Non existing paintings on my canvas
Illusions of delight
Give me your hand
I’ll guide you over the icy lake of emotions
and make sure it won’t give way
Hold tight lest you not stumble
upon the harsh roots under your feet
These fraudulent little monsters of deceit
lurking along this way
Let me take you there
To my world of light
To the land of mirrors beyond the horizon
A place of contradiction
Where nights take away shadows from faces
and make distress bearable
Where roses are faded
yet their scent so irresistibly lusty
Dare to follow one pathway made of tears
leading into the heart of my smiling forest
Only through a passage of pain
we may enter the world of love

I love this poem … passages of pain are indeed predecessors to love.
Thank you

Many thanks for your visit and kind comment dear Daniela! So nice to “see” you over here 🙂
Hello! I wish you successful week!
But, as with all things, we need dark and light for balance. To live in peace without the torment and inner turmoil would be a wonderful thing.
Fabulous write.
A world of love would be so full of Light my heart would break with joy!!!

People are afraid of enduring the turmol and pain, as there are many drugs to numb the pain. Numbing is not overcoming though. Great post, my friend … Love, cat
It sounds most dreamy and wonderful but real to me. What a tempting wonderful land you take us to.
