Where All Things Exist

There is a place where all things exist
Even those that will not happen
Smiling back at you in your disillusion
Sad hearts cannot fill the gap in
.
Where every event lives on evermore
Glad as a freed flying dandelion
Grinning for never having to be lost
Like a dad with his ugliest tie on
.
“Never look back” said a scurrying rat
“Perhaps you will turn to stone”
If everything can happen and all is real
Why must we feel so all alone?

Nice to see you around, my friend, and to see your poetry. I think I know the place you speak about - metaphorically speaking. I think you know we are all alone in reality, because we are unique individuals. Even sharing a life with a partner doesn't take that fact away. In the beginning we arrive alone, and in the ending we say goodbye as we depart alone.
A great poem that encourages meaningful thought.
Blessings, Allen

Why, indeed... so powerful and far reaching! Powerfuel (sic) I mistyped but shall venture to let that stand on its own merit. 🕊️🙏
