DARE TO DREAM

As the evening was turning to night
The sun had already set
10:00 pm being time to sleep
There was no counting of sheep
My eyes began to get heavy
Trying to fight it
Sandman won
A dream started the stage
It was totally amazed
Through the illusion
Survival or Death in the air
Turbulence quarters
Danger and warning surrounding
I was aboard a passenger plane
Why I was on the plane will remain
Unknown destination
We encountered a violent storm
Pouring rain and flashes of lightning with Thunder
The plane tries to go above 
Then drops
The plane started to shake
The Captain announced “BUCKLE UP”
Suddenly the plane did a nose dive in a quick motion
I remember seeing an ocean
It was faster and faster
Immediately, the plane got back up in the air
Suddenly I woke up from the dream
I survived
Dream of reality
The possibilities
Against all odds
Nightmare
Troubled mind
Dare to dream
