The Living Desire

If I fall asleep... will I die? If I die... is it like a dream? When awake... how do we get by? Going nowhere to once have been Suppose for one moment By dreaming is in actuality living A fleeting indulgence For everything done living... we’re dreaming I begin to imagine infinite possibilities How abnormal normal is Gifted exclusively in endless abilities Will our dreams to be normal... flee? If I stay awake... will I live? If I live... is it like life? When asleep... do I believe? Going elsewhere to only feel alive We need dreams for life to belong We need death for life to begone Are you a sleeping dream along? Perhaps a living dream reborn...? ..........................
