A world apart
So close, yet so far
Normally non-existent
Yet present in all minds
A mystery to even the most elite
A puzzle to never be solved
A door unlocked in the dead of night
Outside yourself, inside yourself
Not fantasy, but really real
Really happening, really there
So close you can taste it
So real you can feel it
A bridge between
But a door that is locked
Open only in the dead of night
And you alone hold the key.
