Awakening the mind,
It almost feels real.
So vivid the pictures,
They blend and seem fickle.
A small captured moment,
Of fire and dust.
A land of impossible,
Standing between us.
Focused and distorted,
It stands untested,
A truth in this lie,
Just trying to find us.
The impossibilties circle us like an echo,
Two helpless figures,
In this vast land of dreams.
Locked in this battle,
Captured in silent screams.
Awakening the mind,
It almost feels real,
I try and remember,
But the dreams fading,
none of it was real,
Juts a series of pictures,
a memory drifting between happy and surreal.
