As Soon As I Dream Again Poem by Donald R Wolff JR

As soon as I dream again
I know I will be home
My place inside of consciousness
A place I call my own

Therein, past the darken hollow
Are the joys that life can be
Never here is lasting sorrow
In this place inside of me

I dream of being happy
In dreams I'm always free
My family is together
No one ever has to leave

Herein, the past is joined together
Eternal, beyond the bonds of time
It is a place of joyful feeling
Although I live it in my mind

Who is to say life is not real
When you live life across the line
When you recognize the people
You have been with throughout time

If I wake to see tomorrow
Then the fable shall have an end
Still, in this life I can remember
My dreams I keep within
