Key to the Universe

.....by Christian Gallagher

 

If they only knew...

 

...that I possess within me, the key to the universe

They would torment my mind with their affliction

To gain access to the power from her beautiful untapped potential

 

She possesses a magical mystical gift

That can change the chemistry of the hearts & minds of every man

Her imagery alone can send time in a tailspin

He's always trying to stop to take her with him

But she resists time after time

 

She harnesses the light of a trillion suns

That radiates through her electric-blue eyes

 

A billion hearts would stop, just to beat for her once

 

Her words will whip a man's brain into a frenzy

Causing sanity to take off on a beautiful crazy journey

 

They would risk it all for just one memory

 

To be one deep exhaled breath from her lungs.

 

And here I am...

 

...a man with a secret

 

The secret of where the key exists

That's locked away in a place where no one will find it

A place it will wait, until the universe is in front of me

 

Then I shall open up the lock and walk into this enchanted mystical place

Where I will close the door and lock her from the men who give chase

 

I can imagine the unseen beauty, the walls of gorgeous graffiti it displays

Any cracks or holes will be repaired with my untold love

Nurtured with my soul I have opened to roam free within

 

Light any stars that have dimmed and give them life again

Be the caretaker of this vastly expanding universe

The guardian that will serve and protect her most guarded secrets

 

Most of all I would live happy inside this universe

And stand tall & proud

In the center of it.

If you have the key to your universe, hide it forever, never let it go, and always remember where it is. Many of us are looking for the very same key, and many of us will not find it, and often do not deserve it. The most important thing when you have the key is to pay attention to the entry, because the lock will be changed it the door is neglected. Great write, It really made me think. Thank you.

[Chris Micha]

Such amazing words kind, sir! So glad you dug this piece and I thank you!!

Wow! Erika must be flattered! I must say, I had a little freak out when I saw the pitcture of Nikola Tesla. The dude is kind of my all time hero!! He was obsessed with the number three and all numbers that could be broken into 3's. Thus the quote!

[Chris Micha]

The poem had to be read twice. I like the places and the strong description in the poem. You create mystery and beauty with your words. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.
