#hypnagogia
I like staying in hypnagogia--    between sleeping and waking up. I feel happy,         not conscious,         not dreaming. Because the thing about reality is         it's not a dream, and the thing about dream is          it's not real. (fohn)

Hypnagogic
Lying teeth -          Creep                                 Dearer. - silence roars. The closer it contracts, further it draws away. Astonished to find You're still confined inside Your mind. Destroy the weaker and hide behind reticulum. In the realm of a hollow crown I absconded, endeavoured to uncover. I‘ve left myself behind, an inch beneath water                                      decorous A wisp of smoke as it climbs. Carry your shame, rise to the chime, an unfamiliar invitation. Bring your mind back around, around to this                                     callous. The room begins to gratify; You tax, obambulate,               depress.                                    diminished. Penduluming will never mollify,                            placate. The moment you appreciate,                Passing. - Treasure motive abhor being. Be succinct. Prove, Demonstrate.

Proprioception
Between the conception and the creation                                                                         Falls the Shadow. Blinding lights, a crowded terrace, Flickers, music, ballroom dance Suddenly, the image shatters - Darkness, rest from unknown lands. S-spiralling-ing down to nimbus Infinity yet to explore Commotion woke me from my dreams and left me yearning for ____________

Hypnagogia
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
