Vision impaired, my view is blocked
there’s no way in this gate is locked,
are rumours true, these stories hidden
some have seen yet most forbidden ?
Beyond I’ve heard a mighty lake
is filled with treasure free to take,
but holds a price so dear to pay
forever treasures there will stay.
I need to see if this is true
why is this secret kept from view,
It’s said that those who seek will find
so why then here, am I still blind?
I walk this path home every day
yet held within, known not what lay,
there must be something kept inside
whatever’s there, these people hide.
Facts as yet I’ve not revealed
this wall is tall it’s all concealed,
I’d love to know if stories told
are real, or fiction I’ve been sold.
