Boneyard

a poem

in the boneyard of lost dreams

I travel every night

being careful as something hides waiting trying to catch me steal my power

roaming amongst the spirits and souls of fallen stars and forgotten hopes

why do I go there I do not know I guess I like to play in the shadows of the night

with fire and light chasing away the darkness and fears

plus I know that in the boneyard gets resurrected Life

a new life and with a new life comes another dream and more awakenings
