A very haunting poem...your flow is so eloquent and lulling, like a voice singing me to sleep...beckoning me to live this dream that you talk of... Perhaps life itself is just a dream and only death can wake us up...

This was written when the haunted places had me surrounded. There was an escape, but yes, in dreams they do still call. May you find life only a sweet dream.
We should keep faith in our dreams they will surely turn true...but sometimes it happens that what we dream doesn't happen...and that's when we are hurted

A mystical voice speaks to the busy dreamer, shakes him from his slumber to take him to a place where there are no dreams. Its a fearful thought...One day all dreams good or bad will end in an eternal dark sleep. Loved this poem Craig.

Strong use of words. Photo and words was amazing.
"Now clouds your shifting sky
Awaken, dreamer, it’s time to die..."
It is sad. Sweet dreams must die when we awake. Thank you my friend for sharing the amazing poetry.

Always my pleasure to read your work and you are welcome.
Haunting and chilling! The opening questions didn't let me ponder much till I reached the end of the fourth line. It was like I am given two doors for exit-dark n white and I chose the white one,feeling it is evidently safer. However,the truth dawned upon me later that danger and fear are ardent to follow me everywhere,no matter through which door I flee. The image you have portrayed of the sun and the moon here made me felt that way.
The last line just left me astounded! It's short but powerful and dark.

2024 is here... May we make it so much more heaven than hell... Wishing all peace on earth... Together, maybe we go the distance...
The night has a thousand eyes,
And the day but one;
