I dunno what to call this lol

In my dreaming I have found
A world in which; I am.
And the story ends there really
The rest is just crap I have to put up with in the real world

Blessed be the gift of life granted to us through food
Blessed be the warmth of the sun and the refreshing winter cool
Blessed be the sensation of touching mortal skin
Blessed be the magic of the mind when it’s dreaming

I lust for the quenching watery mouthfuls
The elation of adrenaline rushes
The movement of hearts and minds together
The mountain upon which shines the purple light
Smiling at us, before it whisks us away into the ether

In the deeps I have begun to dream
A long melancholy draws sorrow out of fear
And the essence of fear out of hateful rage
Which explodes, shattering every love in its wake.

The bubble slides down the bathtub, slowing down
Reaching the drain hole, holding on
Supressing the water flow, clinging now
It does not care for the inevitable flow of fate
It does not let the water wash it down
It will dive into a new world
And what is that world you say?
Well aren’t dream and reality children of Pleasure and Pain?

Author's Notes/Comments: 

i guess i wrote this as a venting poem about the cycle of my mood changes but then something made me realize it also reflected the stages of the life cycle a person can go through and reincarnation at the end.

Suggestion, on title

If it's about going through moods how about,
"Going Through The Motions" ?
