A place beyond

Sometimes the world is too sharp, its edges cutting deeper than we expect. Reality does not soften its grip, does not pause when we need to breathe. So we close our eyes and step beyond— into places where the sky is endless, where dragons wait on distant cliffs, where love is fierce and untamed. It is not escape. It is survival. A moment to remember that there is more than this weight, more than what we see and know. And when we return, we carry a piece of that magic with us, enough to keep going. Sometimes, we need to fantasize to survive the reality.
