I dream another world
I see stars shining and a moon glimmering
casting a gentle light across my face
a world within our mind
it gives us an escape or sometimes
traps us within its doors
I walk along a winding path made of moistened soil and fallen leaves
its chilly in this world, close to snow
but only wind falls upon my face
I see many moonlit colors
dark shades of their sun filled brothers
this scene is beautiful
a dark shadow falls upon the path
a man.... a dark mysterious being
radiating danger and fear
I try to run in this dreaming state
but my attempts are futile
curse this dreaming walk! ! ! !
I stand motionless, frozen with fear
I think to myself why I will not talk
why wont I try to escape?
then as if a wind blew my thoughts
I enter the mans head
I see him staring at me....
I seem to be him, I am him
but who am I in this body
what do I want?
this dream fades.. and I slowly awake
I have some memory of that dream, but it slowly goes away
I get frustrated with its aloofness
Why do have I have to leave my dreams?
why can I never recall what they are about?
why do I have to be tortured with this?
I never seem to have nightmares...they are just eccentric
my true life is where my nightmares lie
haunting me when I do not sleep
my own paradise in my head will always go away
then one day ill dream eternally
for now I am stuck with these fading dreams
