Beyond the realm of reality exists the land of yesterday. One may choose to visit
this world through the eyes of a child or perhaps it is an era before the division
of time cast its shadows and doubts upon us. Regardless of our environment there will
always be a need for the sensation of yesterday. Man's devices in one way or another
will almost assuredly, at some point in our existence as humans, command us to alter our
thoughts from present to past. It is at this time the durability of one's stature can be
tested to its limits. Will the mind be strong enough to escape the gravity of yesterday's
visions? The hollow images of faces, sounds, scents and memories are familiar yet lack the
tangible acceptance we are comfortable with in reality. Such are the elements that one must
battle to complete the journey from then to now. Such travel makes one venerable to the greener
fields or in some cases the glowing dark horizon of burning bridges left behind. The
hand of yesterday touches your soul with a grasp unmatched by any defense offered by reality.
The ghostly shadows moving about your mind befriend you as the whispers of darkness seduce
the capability of reasonable thought. You are in "your" world now. Not yesterday, not today
yet this term is the nucleus of all frustration or tranquillity.
The acceleration of decision gives way to a blur of emotions as yesterday collides with reality.
The journey back has become the present and the compass of time hasn't a needle. The endless river
of thoughts flows throughout the body destroying the bridges of caution. You strive to listen for the
sound of reality but the music of isolation thunders in the wind. The mental pores begin to bleed
and with every drop your sanity begins to fade as shadows in the night. The beautiful illusion of yesterday
has become a horrible reality. One may ask is it safe to travel into the lands of yesterday?
Of course not! That is not reality, or is it?
