all it takes is the forbidden meeting of two lovers
top and bottom eyelids, cursed with only slight touches all throughout the day
then rewarded for their strength multiple hours of the night
but once they meet, a cruel world is unlocked
a world where fear and love tease you just the same
a false world to escape to that has a mind of its own
yet you're in control
things that wouldn't normally happen - happen
things you wouldn't normally do- are done
things others wouldn't normally say- are said
a world that fools you; takes you away
monotone noise invades your world; quick as lightning it vanishes
never to be seen again
all it took was forbidden lovers to meet
The inspiration for this poem came to me once I awake from an evil fraud of a dream, soon to be welcomed by the cruel "real" world. Dreams are cruel indeed, can cause love, fear, anger and compassion. The world in dreams is completely random; yet we're in control.
