What is a dream?
Is it mostly imagination
Breaking at the seam
Reaching out for any touch of passion?
Or what if it was a sinking feeling
That grabs hold and pulls down
So much that you’re left reeling
Falling into unconsciousness ready to drown
But once you hit the lake
Something chilling invites itself
Into the only body to take
Leaving you without your self
Left alone in a lake of darkness
You never feel anxious
Life becomes so slow
All you dream of is limbo
A place of nothing
Memories that hurt less
Pain that’s calming
And reassuring stress
Waves of regret climbing up
Deep into the limbo sky
Threatening to crack the cup
And leave us with no goodbye
Lost thoughts in the waves
Muffled sounds of hello
Leading to a heart that craves
Another night in limbo
