The Invitation

The invitation is always welcome
The door that leads to brand new worlds
Worlds where anything can happen
And anyone can be
Magicians, princes, unicorns,
Wizards, demons, goblins
Anticipation to a world unknown
To a world that fills us with awe
and fear
To the thousand things that could have been
but won’t be until we make the final walk
To what knows us better than ourselves
Our secret hopes and aspirations
Our fears
and all the things that keep us in the dark.
