Unfinished Dream

Indefinitely suspended

Between dreams and reality

Feeding on insanity



I float,



As chaos slices thru my calm

I am almost numb

From a pain-induced drug



And still

I hold on to the silken needle



As I see your mirage, a real illusion

The highest depths, the clarity of confusion



The blackest white, angelic devil

An absent presence, my ecstatic depression



I dreamed that I was dreaming

And in that dream within a dream,



A real insanity, an insane reality

The constant longing of the heart

Telling you to not wake up



Float in dreams, drown in memories

Like a mantra and a prayer,

It fills my aching lungs



Like oxygen that reminds me to exhale

But don't forget to hold your breath

Or the dream will go away



Once there was a dream

No end, just beginnings
