The Place Without a Name

There is a canyon where understanding is the only sound you hear
A shore where memories come back full and clear
A forest where childhood and maturity finally combine
On the border of reality where time is paid no mind

The trees are made of music, played directly to the heart
Air that whispers feelings beyond the grasp of art
Clouds pierce the soul to its deepest hole with the dancing shapes they make
Nearby a gold that stays resides within the lake

Words float without their limits
Emotions pace without their walls
The question, don't be timid,
Does this place exist at all?

Whether you believe or not may make no difference in the end,
But the difference in the thick of things may be the piece that mends.

  3. "nearby a gold that stays". Worship. Is that an allusion to the poem nothing gold can stay? Regardless if it is or not this poem is prime. Prime.

  4. This is beautiful. Usually when I'm reading there's a line or two that stick out to me. But this, I loved every line. Truly inspired.
