Xanadu

Picturesque place where no man can step,
Drops of sunlight seeping through the towering trees.

Green leaves flutter in the forest breeze.
Forest floor living harmoniously with the beings.

Twilight hits the perfect lone dragonfly,
Sun sails down and appears the crescents shape.

But, when the darkness hides the sleeping divine,
The predator comes out of hiding.

Curious eyes see through the rustling branches,
Finding their now known prey.

The silence is now suffocated by destruction,
And what world is complete without destruction?

Xanadu is untouchable, unable to be found or created,
A lie and a dream in my heart.
