Dream Revelation
That blasted recurring dream!
Time after time, the lair appeared;
and he was a huge movie star,
but I couldn’t recall his name.
The teasing, taunting, lying jerk;
night after endless night,
he haunted my subconscious;
making and breaking promises,
that I seemed to crave hearing, from him.
I couldn’t understand,
why I kept having that blasted dream;
I don’t even know that,
he was a real star;
he was in the dream, though.
Now, dreams have a funny way,
of presenting archetypes;
mind came up with some…doozies.
Imagine my surprise,
when I realized that,
he was me;
deceiving myself.
