i dream too often.
too often do i slip away to an existence that is not my own.
i am pulled into a world that doesn't belong to me.
lost in a lyrical reprise,
i close my eyes
and exist, for a moment, in perfection.
"you dream too much"
they saw.
and i know this as truth. as curse. as damnation.
for though my dreams allow me a purity i am such stranger to,
they deny me the satisfaction of passing my days in a reality
that proves essential to my sanity.

"lost in lyrical reprise" i love that line
this was a great poem, it was made of excellence.
the concept was amazing, very well written.
never stop.
i too feel as though when i dream, i become a new person, and my life is complete...who doesn't dream?
it was beautiful.

Brilliant. One of my new favorite lines is "they deny me the satisfaction of passing my days in a reality
that proves essential to my sanity." Beautifully written, dear. Loved this a lot.
