Imagine, if you will, orbs of light
superimposed on ebony space.
Two portals, found at the edge of night,
where dreams and reality embrace.
Sharing shades of a violet hue,
they seemingly brush darkness away.
And as more colors come into view,
light imbues night's magical array.
Similarly, flaunting paradise,
fate presents a choice of left or right.
Offering Eden, not once but twice,
dual sanctuaries shining bright.
One shows hints of humans living there;
beings that are imbued with a soul.
It's difficult to see past the glare,
but the wrong choice could levy a toll.
Both orbs are equally lush and green,
yet only one hints at human lives.
On the left, a garden can be seen,
while on the right, Mother Nature thrives.
Like two mirrors surrounded by black;
choose wisely on stepping through that glass.
For, unlike Alice, there's no way back
from where souls exist or souls trespass.
