My little world- You!

We fly south

where the castle is set

It is the dark part of my world

where i wouldn't wonder

or step foot...

I don't remember this place being here

maybe the castle was hidden

and now, for some reason

had appeared...

Though, my mind could be playing tricks 

a land of doubts

yet I'm unknown what I have doubts about...

In Fallos throat a low rumble brew

A warning were near

"its OK Fallo, we wont be here long" i said

uncertain what we might face...

We landed on a patch of dead grass

black as the castle itself

everything about it seem harsh

enough to give me goosebumps

and Fallomines hair to stand on end...

"Stay, i'll be right back OK" I demanded

which he did not like 

and snorted at me

"Ah, i'll have none of that!"

Fallo lowered his head

trying to weaken my demand 

with his puppy eyes

"Please do not do that Fallomine"

"It is safer that you stay" I soothed

stroking the tip of his nose

he turned away and sat by some trees

it was better i do this alone

and he be away from harm...

I carefully walked the next few yards

with every step i was stirring up dust

with every step my heart felt like it was about to bust

it's been a long time since i felt like this

welling up with fear for the unknown...

I was nearing the entrance

when i took a moment to look back

Fallomine was watching 

fearing 

maybe a little hurting

because i told him to stay...

I shook the feeling of guilt

and focused,

but as i was turning back

the doors opened 

revealing a city inside...

The chanting sounds of people

drew me in

how can this be? 

a place so dark but yet

is full of merry...

It was like i entered another world

though it is not mine

moving further into the crowd

they gather 

to a familiar voice...

I made my way through

following that voice

why do i know it?

where have i heard it before?

Finally, i was there

but still could not see that melody 

that deep chime i recognize 

then, I saw...

"You!"

Your poems on your world keeps getting more and more intriging! You should write a book for children! I enjoyed This!

[SpokenWord]

This reminds me of so many things. It is like taking a tour in someones own mind and we reach the deepest part of their memory, a place they had forgotten about. To me the dragon represents a person's attachment to reality like when we fall asleep and we drift into a dream state we leave one part of our self for another. I can tell our main character has strength and some kind of powers for she is brave enough to leave a living dragon to face the unknown by her self. As we enter this castle we realize this place isn't so distance it is actually more familiar to us then we realized.

This is a great story poem!
