DREAM LOCKDOWN
We let our minds play fancy, not reaching in to deep just gently dancing
Strolling along ,riding astride in a cautious glide,mimicking many nights before
Locked in a sterile rhythm avoiding a mental collision,softly we stay prancing
Destiny never asked for, now never answered,nothing lost, nothing to restore
Drift into the night no interest in former plight,simply never know what the future is planning
Remember those VIVID visions,not lost still interned,left inside for us to deplore
Relaxing pleasantly lacking contention ,easily laying down without becoming draining
Blind to what is outside the walls ,shielded from the abyss not seeking to explore
Meek mild not thinking to wild ,pillows our new protection marking twilight without explaining
Will it be cheating if not recreating, unexplained actions as if being forced to recall such gore
Playing along is not wrong ,we have not seceded or been defeated, but managing to live and learn as we are changing. R.C.
Thought of more in reverse of "normal" thoughts of having a nightmare but how we might have come to live with them , Yrs of nightmares left me never knowing anything?just hid from them,confronting it all and learning then knowing myself was the hard and now the best part. But never a fool "it" is all still there. Thanks for reading your thoughts are helpful. Rick
