Beyond Dream Poem by Prabir Gayen

Beyond Dream

Life is a dream to me,
All that goes into the room of past
is dream,
All that is stored in the room of future
is dream to me,
Between the dreams the present
is sleepy,
I sleep in between lifetime,
I sleep to come to the state of
wakefulness,
I dream to meet Him beyond sleep,
Sleep with dream is the corridor
of my room,
I am imprisoned within the dungeon
of my mind,
Sleep is my imprisonment,
Yet with pain in heart I wait
to see beyond sleep,
Like waves thought comes and
abstruse becomes my sleep,
Like twilight dream flashes
and I am lost,
The Sun of wakefulness is clouded
with deep sorrow of false dream,
Dream and sleep like cover on my being,
Somewhere deep I am lost within
the sands of mind,
Fighting with dark cloud
of thought,
In half-wakeful state I am
in search of me,
With hope to meet Him
beyond clouds of dream,
The fleeting light may pave the way
for me to witness my mindless Self.
