Dreamworld

Life is seen differently through closed eyes.

Lost in trouble when I woke up

Remembering what I saw

The world I see when eyes are closed

The pictures my mind will draw.

At one time I ride the raging waves

Thinking I am one with the sea

Only to find myself in trouble

Running from an unseen enemy.

Into a past I thought I forgot

Reliving a nervous thought

To see a face I know I lost

Enjoying seconds bought

Only to wake to today’s dismay

Breaking in my chest

To know these dark few moments

May very well be my best.
