    Dreaming

    The eyes keep on getting smaller
    Going down without a fight
    The body lies in wakeless slumber
    Deeply in the dwindling light

    Forces unknown drive me yonder
    Knowing not where I’d arrive
    A moment’s notice left to ponder
    Bits of magic come alive

    Taken to lands far and distant
    Time is lost with every stride
    Armed with the care of a new-born infant
    Filled with happiness inside

    I walk on; pillowy clouds they show
    A splendid sun, it gleams of gold
    So gently iced with wintry snow
    Mountains stand, their wisdom old

    And hark, I hear her call to me!
    That wily temptress; Goddess of sin
    My eyes take in her sparkling radiance
    Emanating from within

    She beckons me with all her might
    I give in to this sweet surrender
    Mesmerizing, lovely, bright
    A flying kiss she blows so tender

    Alas! Her spell is broken; I’m free
    As my eye meets the first sunlight
    The heart still wanting, thirsty, needy
    Trying hard to put up a fight

    But it’s time to go; time to wake up
    Time to start a brand new day
    Time to run, to hurry up
    Time to walk the weary way

    I know I won’t have to wait so much
    For soon it will be that time again
    To embark on a journey with a magic touch
    A voyage, maybe, in the rain?

    Dreams are an avenue to fulfill the life
    We try to live, but aren’t living
    Why worry when you could spend the night
    So peaceful; blissfully dreaming?
