Among those born as humans on the earth
Among those born as humans on the earth
within their mind the mirrored planet lies:
the universe contained behind their eyes,
more tangible with every day since birth.
Within, each place you love is held for you
perfected; every friendship dwells therein;
and if you dare, a thousand tales begin,
and if you close your eyes you'll see it's true.
Within that place a forest lies, more real
than all on earth, and all you count as dear,
wherever they may be, you'll find them here,
just as in life of sight, of sound, of feel;
there you and I will stay, and always be:
and when you need a hug, come visit me.

Very dificult to write in enjambment rhymes and still maintain iambic pentameter.
Deep respect, Guv.
