Graylands

[TLDunn213]

Walk with me in Twilight

and hold on to my hand

and I'll show you the Doorway

to a strange Faerieland

 

There in the Graylands

where their eyes are like smoke

They never will laugh

or call pain a joke

 

Walk in the Graylands

when you're feeling sad

They can't make it better

but you won't hurt as bad

 

For although the Pain

will fly not from thee

You'll learn to live with it

and yet from it be free

 

When you walk in the Graylands

trust not your eyes

for all that they will show you

is Shadows and Lies

 

Look with your Heart

and then you will See

where True Danger lies

and what you need never flee

 

Walk there in Twilight

and come safe away

or spend the night

and then you'll have to Stay

 

Walk with me in Twilight

and hold on to my hand

as I lead you back now

to your native land

 

Forever in Twilight

The Graylands will be

you Know now how to Walk there

and how to stay Free.

[Fluke]

A topic dear to my heart, I like the escapism this poem implies.
