My Fiction Hero
I
Awake in memory
Yet asleep in the world
We built from the ground
With our hands
With our minds
With our hearts
Formed figures of dreams
Compose a cast
And in turn shaped our world
Solidified it by our musing
The frozen figures follow our paths
While we trail
Hopelessly hapless
Desperate to shatter the surface
II
Falsified images of nostalgic bliss
Memories unfolded
Gaining strength with each layer
The power of the pages
Overshadows the frailty of the framework
The shallow depths
The dimensionless dreams
Demanding to be designed
Not simply observed
III
Shifting our shapes
Our thoughts
An extension of the living
And appendage
Empowered by our senseless devotion
Our guiding motion
Shadows of truth within our grasp
Behind the curtain
A purpose uncertain
Who are the heroes?
