Ode to a Dream

By DreamLord1

The darkness surrounds me
I feel myself falling
Every thought dissolves
Into a sea of chaos
But
In the distance
Rising from the darkness
I see a light

The dream
Like a tranquil lake
Which is seen as a mirror
I approach to touch it
And I see something beautiful
But it dissolves
As if by magic

I tell myself
“How odd this is”
“A world doesn’t just dissolve”
In an instant
I see the truth
My eyes are opened
Like a blind man
Who sees for the first time
My eyes are opened
To see a world full of wonder

Every leaf
Every grain of sand
As real
As in life
Trees
Whose leaves dance
On the wind
And what a wind!
A breeze
Cool and sweet
The sun
Brilliant and powerful
With its fire on my skin

The colors
Electric
Living
Dazzling
Every color
That shines like the sun
Shimmering
Like the water of the sea

I fly off
I feel a storm in the air
The sky darkens
But is split in two
By a blade of light
The earth trembles
With the force
Of the thunder
Attacked by a thousand winds
With the cold rain on my skin
Finally
I am free

Overwhelmed with joy
I feel every fiber of my being
Ignite
With the fire of the stars
Free at last
I hear the trumpets sound
There
In the heart of the storm
Feeling the fury
Of the wind
The water
The thunderbolts
At last
I am free

The dream
Has given the powers
Of a god
To a man who will return
In a few moments
To a world
Where what he lived that night
Will simply be
A dream
