Domino Poem by tyler eisner

Sometimes I think that dreams tell the future
I look to them to find things in my mind
Because In dreams you expect without choosing what to expect
See without knowing what sights will come
From deep in your mind, ideas and things
Rise to dreams, like creatures who feed on the surface
They show you things in your life
Fears, loves, hatred, hopes, regrets,
Allow you to live them and face them for what they are
But the subconscious is strange
It distorts these feelings, twists them
Generating extreme case scenarios for you dream scape
This is the defense tactic of the subconscious to keep secrets hidden
When life rises to the surface
It distorts the sub-reality to falsify the truth
Codes the dream for the viewer to unravel
But one only has one dream cycle in which to unravel, for
Then they retreat to the depths, the dark, to hide behind your conscious
To find you must dive, pull them up, take them into your control
They plunge back down to the subconscious,
Though memories, remnants, shrapnel, remain in your mind
Use them to guide your decisions in reality,
Take risks, try new things, make new friends, increase current friendships
To create relationships to last a life time
People think they understand my dreams and their mysteries
They don’t understand the effect they have on me
My dreams are the mental compass of my life
Though when they are absent, I struggle
People only notice the differences in a person
They ignore out the idiosyncrasies and focus on the abnormalities
They judge my choices by what they see as different
Not by what they see as the same
People judge my dreams
But only when they go away
Subconscious
