“We dream in our waking moments, and walk in our sleep.” -scarlett letter


Dozing off into a world of opulent and brilliant hues,
I am unable to separate myself from sleep,
my consciousness fades,
I lie bewildered in my radiant wonderland,
so strange and yet normal are the thoughts and frugal that babble internally inside my secure mind,
As I lie mentally unaware through the nights peace and serenity, I am slowly whatever I dream to be,
I am a stone buried deep within the sand,
Drizzled softly by the crystals falling south of the sky,
Perhaps even a delicate petal from a rose floating in a downward spiral wilted by time,
I imagine myself as a single feather guarding the Robin from the cold and dreary midnight,
then as my thoughts become quite hazy, a proclamation is made,
the rooster has crowed, and dawn has come,
So with a yawn and much regret,
I flutter my eyes open to greet the harsh, fast coming day.


The author's comments:
This is insight inside my mind and my separation from reality and the blissful exotic space in my mind. Through reading this poem, you may find true delight is found in the least sane part of your mind.
