Crazy Dreams

Crazy Dreams, these Crazy dreams
    They come, they go, and still I know… All is not as it seems…

                 Am I dreaming? Somehow do I know?
    My heart begins to race, my feet pick up the pace
                                  Then I see another way to go…
              Can’t be here , can’t be there again
                                            Bang my head, “ Wake- Up!” I said!
           Eyes open and the light shines in

                            Crazy Dreams, these Crazy Dreams
      They come, they go, and still I know, All is not as it seems…

                   Walking hand in hand, our day in the sun
                        But something is strange, there’s a change in the Game
                                            Goodbye Dear it’s been fun…
   Lie down on the ground and block out the sound
                                                   Close my eyes, then look to the skies
                                                               Twice more and I am Unbound                           

                               Crazy Dreams, these Crazy Dreams                                                  
             They come, they go, and still I know… All is not as it seems…

                           I can’t understand this, what does it mean?
      Fool me once, Fool me twice, Foolish no more, I’m through being nice
                                                      I’ll simply change this scene
                        It’s not what it is, It is what it’s not
                                           Like the  Matrix as well, I’ve discovered the spell
                                     To change this Dreamland’s lot

                                                      How sad True Life can fail to reveal
                                       This Knowledge to  change, and Power to heal
        Breath in, Breath out, I have no doubt, these Talents I would steal

   Crazy Dreams, these Crazy Dreams, they come, they go, and Now I know… 
                                It could all be easier than it seems!

I can relate to this, Chris. Like you I have learnt to control my dreams, change their path, bring them to a halt, or even make them last longer...it all depends on the content!! ~ Regards // paul

I'm glad you can relate Paul...my spouse and friends think I'm crazy! My trouble lately is, as soon as I know I'm dreaming now, I just wake -up...oh well:)

I know this dream sequence well, when I can manage sleep. Definitely Matrix-like. :)

Chris, I think dreams are so special and I really get that feeling with your poetry here. I sure enjoyed this one today! Cats might dream they are lions. We can dream we are royalty!
