From dull reality I silently step aside
To please myself with a surreal ride
Undressing the burden of prejudice
Diving aloft into the pool of bliss
Shattering all the shackles of space-time
Intoxicating words with thoughts to rhyme
Pages pouring out elixirs of pleasure
Healing wisdom beyond any measure
Messages preserved by immortal greats
Relishing minds with immaculate tastes
Kindling fantasies of self discovery
Triggering journeys of recovery
A reflection deliciously transformed
A seeking shadow divinely reformed

Muse prompted by Magpie Tales and FormForAll : Clarian Sonnets hosted at dVersePoetsPub by Samuel Peralta .
"Clarian Sonnet is composed of seven sequentially rhymed couplets – aa bb cc dd ee ff gg – in pentameter, or ten syllables per line."
I might have gone wrong with the syllable count as I was completely relying on http://www.syllablecount.com/default.aspx for knowing the syllable count per line.
