The Journey into Your Soul

I am writing about the symbolism from one of my dreams

The Journey into Your Soul

I searched inside
for the secrets to your
eccentric soul.
Twas a fantastical journey even if
others attempts were meant to prevent
one from getting too far.
I excused myself in effort to see through
entertaining, loud, garish, rude gatherings charm.
Inside there are ornate gold trimmed
wooden vaults built into the sturdy thick corridors
and walls.
Layer upon layer of riddles, locks, doors, keyholes, and codes,
I searched in vain in the dark abode.
It was like the edge of discovery of the emerald tablets,
ancient secrets, buried treasure, and bold choices between the forks in the road
Alas the door opened and just at that moment I awoke.
Just like that I sneaked into thee, but alas there was nothing I was
allowed to remember or see.
I wait for the next chapter to fall into in slumber n sleep that allows me access to
accidentally wander into your private chambers of keep..
that was once so close within my reach.


Spaded Heart

I LOVE how this treads the line between poetry and short story and that one genre I'm infatuated with yet doesn't really exist. As another symbolist I have to say that I adore your ability to tell a great story for those who don't seek the actual symbolism. Which is something I've been needing to work on because my stuff doesn't quite make the grade as a good story. So I believe I need to analyze more of your poetry/stories to improve. Keep up the good work.

very well expressed.
We all eccentric souls dream to unlock ornate gold trimmed
wooden vaults within ourselves....

Very old world and elaborate language just added to a really authentically Era-Of-Kings feel =D
