Paige Gallagher Poems

As I close my eyes
The colours swirl
They twist and turn
And curve and curl.
...

As I spin around
In a circle
I dreaded what I would see
Once I opened my eyes
...

When I dream,
I am swallowed like an ocean drowning.
When I dream,
I am ambushed like a fire burning.
...

My mind makes me think
Dreams delving deeper,
Deeper,
Diving,
...

Dreams are true
Not for you, but it’s true.
They lie, and cry,
I told you they lie!
...

Bang!
Dreams around her explode...
Boom!
They tumble down around her...
...

My dreams are evil,
They are laughing at me...
Taunting me...
Killing me...
...

Close your eyes
Listen to my
Now so broken
Lullaby
...

People think of clouds.
But really they’re everything,
Except for the truth.
...

I am all that I dream:
I am a ship out at sea,
I am a friend that is drowning,
I am helping,
...
