Writing From the Back of a Dream
There I was floating free
amid the clouds
such freedom
without wings
I saw the past
I saw the future
I saw all the world
The past was a thin cloud
The future was a shining hope
The world was full of wonder
for all to see
I saw it in one dream
I dreamed I saw a dim cloud
grey and forlorn
it seemed not happy
It seemed weighed down
yet it did not hold me back
I saw it and I moved on
I see the cloud
and I see my past
but it doesn't bother me
clouds float away
disappear into nothing
My past is like a cloud
it floats away
leaving the future
the future is shining to me
like a bright place I saw
waiting for me.
