Beyond the maps, where legends dwell, I ventured into the unknown
While many have possibly traveled paths such as these
Mine were completely unaltered and untouched
Nobody but me saw the smiles that flashed
Across your face like rabbits in a field
Nobody but me felt your hand
As you swung your legs cleanly off the rocks
Nobody but me has heard your serenades
Wake chirping birds in the shallow hou...
Beyond the maps, where legends dwell,
I ventured into the unknown, a living hell.
The day was hot, the sun beat down,
But soon enough, rain clouds gathered 'round.
drops fell fast, and thunder roared,
I realized I was ill-prepared, oh lord!
No shelter in sight, no phone in hand,
Lost in the wilderness, feeling unmanned.
With each step, the mud grew deep,
And I cursed myself for my reckles...
“Nope not that. No beyond maps or venturing. Venturing means we choose to go. The only thing you have right is that we are all in the unknown.”
Ethan couldn’t understand why. They were lost, the streets were busy and loud.
He couldn’t believe that he got talked into this. Before he even realised what was going on Alex and Olly has whisped the trio into central London. Blindfolded and given onl...
Far throughout these lands, afar the desert sands,
I discover new beings and souls,
and realise it’s the ancient shoals.
The ancient shoals of fish that shimmer,
As I enter caves the light gets dimmer,
Luminous algae blanket the water’s rise,
And a whole new world opens up in front of my eyes....
beyond
the maps where legends dwell,
I ventured
into the unknown
with a space ship
and a strange radio signal
ahead,
the charts supposed,
was a timeless torrent
of gases
unformed, unknowing and
unimpressed with life
behind
was my kind dog
missing me,
saying, Master,
where are you going
there’s nowhere
somewhere
hope leads to,
curiosity reaches,
desperation makes different
than an inferno

Someday, when you tire of this world, you will find a door.
It will be ancient, scarred cedar wood that feels like an old friend. You will knock on it. Whisper the answer to the question asked. Shh- softer than that. Speak too loudly and you risk scaring it. Magic is rather fragile, and the door is quite shy.
Pause here. Remember all you have to give up and all you may gain. Remember the instruc...
Beyond the maps, where legends dwell,
I ventured into the unknown.
I seek a fate unfathomable,
for mortals to know.
Not very special
Just too scared to not go
The legend is intriguing
And a very curious thing
Who knows what lies ahead of me?
The rocky shores of Galilee
What brings me to this place
A place of legend
The man which I seek
walked these shores
I seek the truth behind the book
