To Dream A Life
/It is a poem about dreaming a life into existence of reality or not....
————
LIFE IS A DREAM...
A figment of imagination
A total twist of reality
A nonexistence of the truth
OR...
A DREAM IS LIFE.
That has not yet found existence
In the reality of truth;
That has yet to be perceived
By a living soul
As being a real place
In time and matter
Somewhere in the universe.
TO LIVE IS TO DREAM
AND TO DREAM IS TO LIVE...
The very existence
Of my soul and well-being
Was in the peace and solace
I found living
In my dreams
In my dream home
With my dream family
As I peacefully slept.
IS IT TO BE
OR
NOT TO BE?
The truth of reality
In waking life
Burdens my soul
With a living nightmare
Twisting and turning
Each direction I go...
Feeling empty,
Desolate, and broken,
With no way out;
My heart and soul cries out
Just yearning
For the love and peace
I once felt.
WHAT IS LIFE
WITHOUT A DREAM?
It is misery
In the physical form
Taking in pain and illness;
Leaving nothing but heartache
And an empty soul
To anguish forever
In the living nightmare
That is never seeming to end;
If only I could make
The good dreams I once had
Into reality,
I could once again
Truly live...
TO DREAM A LIFE.
