the circle

by Matthias L. - Capricorn

once again we've reached a point
  where nothing can possibly go wrong

sins are redeemed, 
     hope refreshed
   while in the dawn of the night
  love does flourish 
    and dances won't end

    here at the doorway to another eternity
  I witness the perfection of a world
       kept safely
   behind a barrier of glass
               yet to be seen

  then, a sudden emotion...
    I'd like to enter this haven
  this paradise of concrete and crystal
   but one more look reveals
     I have to choose wisely
  as everything is in the right place
     everyone is playing his role
    a note of the composition 
         devoid of a theme of being alone
    
    they're lost in their dancing
   their mirrors and dreams
      too occupied to notice
    a stranger from the other side
      peek through a circle
   filled with instant sweetness
     pure delight 
       fragile illusions
   and, thankfully, nothing
     to support any doubt

 yes, this is it;
    now I am certain
  there's no need 
   to join with these lives
I can sense it
  nothing can possibly go wrong
