Reality, Dreams, and The Space Between
by @parker-blackwood
The time period between being awake and being asleep
This mystical place that so little beings remember:
It's the place that I could live in for the rest of my life
For it is neither reality or a dream
A time that is neither dark nor light
Neither good or bad
The world of in between
Everything is neutral
It is the world of calmness
Nothing to worry
Nothing to be afraid of
It's the only place I can find solace
The place without sadness and loneliness
But also free of the nightmares
Undisturbed by the morbid images my mind creates
And untouched by the anxiety, loneliness, and pain of this cruel world
A place where no person can take me away from
A place where no creature can lay a claw on me
Gates between consciousness and unconsciousness
Guard this place of sanctuary
I would like to stay here,
This, I would want to make my home
But waking is too demanding
And sleeping is too necessary
I wish my home would be Hypnagogia
A place where you never sleep
You never wake
And you never dream
