In a Parallel World

If only it were true .

 

In a parallel world I am not Paul,

I am not the man I am at all.

I am a King, I rule the court,

And the army who for me have fought.

 

In another place I am not me,

I’m more than who I appear to be.

I rule the land with an iron sword.

My name they herald as a Lord.

 

In another time, another place,

I serve a different human race.

They bow to me, my word they heed,

There is no lying, no death, no greed.

 

On another Earth, a different world,

I command the seas where oceans swirled.

I own the ships they bought for me,

As I explore the treacherous sea.

 

In a universe so unlike our own,

As King I call the gardens home.

I tend to them, they hear me call.

For I am not me, I am not Paul.

 

In a parallel world they know my name,

They call me King, for I’m not the same.

They worship me as if I’m a god,

They bow down low, beneath my rod.

 

In another reality, I stand supreme,

As ruler of the world unseen.

For I'm not the man you see at all,

In a parallel world, I am not Paul.

I love this as I can relate to the theme that you express. I have a poem posted here at AD titled, "Yearnings" which expresses a similar theme; also, "The Death of Beth." Thank you for sharing Paul; much enjoyed. Love and peace,

Regis
