Must a rest be peaceful to be restful? Must a prison be walled to be a prison?
How many people rest without peace; how many prisoners lie still but free?

A Dream can be a prison, when the dream cannot be escaped.
A Dream haunts you when you sleep and when you've waked
A prison without walls, a prison in my mind
A prison I hate the most because images shine
A Dream is a place of beauty, honesty, and hope
A Dream is a place with which I can never cope
A prison created only when the imprison-er has faded
A prison of haunting ideas and fantasies aided
A Dream is a taunting, teasing, tortuous thing
A Dream cannot be, but it's possibilities sing
A prison of wishes and wants to be desired
A prison of worries and false prophets, liars
A Dream is only as hurtful as it is full of bliss
A Dream's greatest weapon; a non-existent kiss
