Good morning all,

Breakfast is on the buffet, and after breakfast we’re doing carriage rides through the park, on our way to the amusement park. No rush there is room for all!

Dichotomy

I dream, of far places I’ve never seen,
yet, I’ve walked there so many times.
As the sun disc sets like a dying torch,
the sky, now a deepening purple crown.
To just know, to understand, is to weep,
for this moment can never, ever, be again.

I embrace the falling night, as a dark robe,
to dress myself in ignominy, a pauper’s rags.
Too human, to feel so much and live in it,
oh how I shudder at the burn of life, I ache.
Such is the real price one pays to be alive,
to grasp the full flame of existence anew.

I burn so, like a lighthouse on a dark coast,
the beam of my tattered hope, seeking my soul.
Somewhere out there, in the distant lands,
I’ll find that which I seek, with fearful heart.
One day I will be complete, and so I fear,
will I be an Angel or a Demon, or still both.
