Unicornian Ways
By Silver Spectre
Would you understand if I brought you my forest
Walked you through my cool still waters
Cup in my hands the tears of my folly
Laid on your lips what my tears fallen dreamed
Would you think me foolish for the windmills I’ve raided
For the chasing of shadows gleaming signs of fairytales
For the fabled myth of the unicorn is fleeting
Like the end of the rainbow when breached is just mist
Don’t long to be her lost in the silhouette of angels
Casting shadows long restless from the temple I built
Come to me as you are in the stillness of your beauty
And watch me awaken with the touch of your heart
Please forgive me for my unicornian ways

reminds me of a mystical world I use to dream of before reality came crashing down, and I learned of electrical bills, and sales tax, and the misery of life. Thanks.
