Dreams of Anywhere but Here

Dreams are somewhat underestimated.

Submerging ourselves into another world.

A familiar world,

But yet our own.

A place where we can visit the past,

Talk to those no longer here..

And no longer around.

Do what we want with them,

Pretend they say, what we wanted them to say..

In the past.

Taking us away from our everyday,

To a certain moment in time. 

And whatever happens, 

Something always happens...

The unconscious mind more alive,

than the conscious.  

To take for granted,

What is a nightly escape from our lives,

An opportunity to leave the average behind..

Centering ourselves in story lines that could never possibly exist.

I selfishly wish my days away,

To visit people from the past,

Escape feelings of today. 

To fall into the deepest world,

-And disappear for hours, 

Where I cannot be found...

Lovely writing. The "dream" can often become more real than reality. Leaving that "average" behind should be our dream......if only more of us can be inspired to dream :)
