"a Dream Once Dreamt"

I dreamt a dream
not wanting to wake up
reality did jog my mind a little
but each time i drifted into my dream
i stayed in it longer
soon enough
my eyes would've stayed shut
never wanting to open once again
i favored the dream world
for everything was balanced
for everything made sense
and if it didn't
well, it still would've been okay
i soared in the skies
no care in the world
no need for disguise
no plan where to go
no pain in my eyes
just a fed happy soul
i favored the dream world
