Dip Into the Unknown

Just the other day, I had drawn an imaginary castle 
I knew all the pathways to the glittered dreams
As I got nearer and nearer to touch 
The dreams started blurring with reality
The pathways got narrowed down, even for the sun to gaze
 the wicket closed off me
Despair overshadowed my life

As I ambled in the lawn
The moat delighted with the reflection of the sun
There is no such thing as ‘lost hope.’ 
When ‘life’ is still there
That’s when a new life commenced as I awoke.

There is nothing to fear but fear itself
All that glitters is not gold
I chose to dip my whole self into the unknown
Into the sea of the likelihood
For each day to have a new and different sun
To have an endlessly changing horizon

We’re all on a quest for true significance; 
real encounters; inner peace and inspiration.
You will take my hand, make no mistake
Just like the sea shimmering in the sunlight
Well, I’ll take what you give and
oh, so much more, ‘cause
The fear of the unknown,
Does not scare me anymore.

I wonder what on Earth the waves might bring...
