Dreaming...

Hm.... :-)

Sometimes I dream.

Dream of foreign lands.

I am always something special

Something important.

 

I have helped a little girl

Escaping her father.

He was all too kind to her

If you understand.

 

I have been at war

Escaping a forest,

Jam-packed with evil wood-folks.

They shot a dog I had.

 

I once was in love

In a dream.

Or maybe twice,

Maybe a lot of times.

And I am always in love with the same.

 

But every time the dream ceases,

So does he.

I can never remember anything about him,

Only that he is always the same.

Author's Note

Do you remember any of your dreams?

'Always the same'...familiarity breeds contempt...so they say...

dreams help us live the life we wanted to be in ...
they help us see what we wish to see ...
ourselves, our loved ones ... our life ...

[Amanda J. S.]

Yeah... maybe :-)

Dreams are our way of finding good and bad places. I like the dreams in the poem. Trying to help someone and love mean you are balanced and content. Thank you for sharing the excellent poem.
