A Dreams Paradox

In the midst of the night
I stir then awake
With cloudy visions in sight
I can still taste the crumb cake

A far fetched fantasy 
Full of hopes and dreams
That my brain allows me to 
see
With an endless amount of 
themes

To fly the night sky
Soaring up and above
A true bliss body high
With a feeling that's hard to 
speak of

I try to channel my thoughts
Let my heart lead the way 
Through the masquerade of 
plots  
In their beautiful bewilderingly 
array 

All connected like a knot in 
crochet 
Are these sub realities in my 
dreams
So remarkable in their display
That are fragile at the seams 

Everlasting aren't these 
moments 
That take away my breath
A puzzling time of events
That keep me from my death

In here I search for the key 
Lost within this paradox
For the door of true reality
A society values detox

Did I really just awake?
As I lay here in my bed. 
Is this world around me all 
fake?
Or am I still lost inside my 
head?
