the walls open and reveal a place
       where flight shines
and where words sing in languages
       open to the mind and to the heart

where colors reveal in second sight
       the unseen secrets of themselves
in dreams still captured
       and from nightmares left alone

the streams wind from deep within
       finding the chalice of the soul
              and, pouring desire into reality,
they sculpt new memories onto the page of openness

waiting for us
                to read

Simply gorgeous...


where colors reveal in second sight
       the unseen secrets of themselves
in dreams still captured
       and from nightmares left alone


I especially love the phrase "in dreams still captured".

...and her crown was formed by the ice in her eyes
