A Dream
By: Kristen
Daylight sweeps by—eager
For the moon and its offerings
Awaiting an unconscious reality
To entertain its lively rhythm
Behind these salty eyes
No more hiding
*
Deep among the center of our being
Vivid dimensions, so surreal
The past in disguise
Secrets to be revealed
Pledged by insanity
Yet adjured by belief
Imagery to be exceptional
The only relief
*
A nocturnal creature
As dreams are to be lively
For what is more vivid
Than a world without boundaries
Or radical opinions
Perceiving an obscure world
Creatively healing one’s mind
*
Emotions on fire
An adrenalin rush
The fate of this world
Too real to not touch
Telling stories of expression
Too compelling to deny
Stories screaming to be bold
In the depths of the night
*
Devouring what’s lost
Or perhaps what once was
Neglected thoughts
A creation without inhibitions
Dreams—voiced as illusions
Or are dreams merely the truth?
A passage to tether
To escape false inceptions
*
Comprehensive in nature
no element of time
Dreams— spiritual escapes
Brave encounters to be flourished
Subsiding the numbness
ironically fast asleep
Sweet dream to all
Until morning we speak

Ah, what I fool I am. I was thinking this was about suicide, but then I realised that I’m just projecting, or thinking about my own last post, or something like that.
Now I understand, now I appreciate you craft, Kristen, now I am at ease. 🙂
Lovely piece – bravo! More please (if’n you don’t mind).
