It’s the dream that keeps recurring with unexpected
regularity,
a dream that draws the very same picture over and over
again,
and each time it leaves me frightened as the end is always
the same,
while the dread lingers in my soul for too long a time
thereafter.
And the dream appears again, with the outcome still the
same,
yet this time I let the scene play on and the dread has somehow
gone.
In it’s place a strange sensation, is this freedom so
unknown?
Seems the moments past the end, doesn't mean the end at all,
as there is still more out there, past the limit of our fear.
Hopefully you are right.
ReplyDeleteGlad I don't dream . . . . but day dream . . . . and try to make those dreams come true. . . .. :)
ReplyDeleteSo beautifully written. I love the contrast between the two stanzas...

Do I detect a definite rise in your resolve to push past the pain of the past?
ReplyDeleteI don't like the vivid dreams that I have. Most are filled with abandonment and people who are lost to me, but I keep looking for them. Obviously, I still have the old abandonment stuff going on in my psyche.
