Dreamland

It's the moment at the deepest part of your sleep It takes hours to attain this second to keep Our slumber usually does not achieve this utopian ecstasy The interaction you wish continues endlessly But once in a blue moon, a moment you never expect The moment arrives where you truly connect As you see the second half, completing the full moon And their eyes are made to fully consume All of their perfection manifested from your mind Into a form which only your subconscious can define Everything is vivid, everything is clear Fear leaves your heart as your heart delves into the nearest dear Realer than reality Better than destiny More serene than serenity Pristine felicity And then you fall into the void As your dream is dismantled and destroyed You knew from within that it was too perfect to be real But you went on anyway, blissfully ignorant appeal Inward peace when outward chaos As your eyes ease open only to loss Quickly, return to slumber But the dream is no longer No way to go back, no matter how you try And at this point you knew it was all a lie But sometimes the lie is the ideal reality Better than the realm of actuality Where the significant other may not see you so significant Or perhaps they're away, astray, or on the other side This moment will stick with you throughout the day And it will either decay or be immortalized in a poem on display Send me back to dreamland For I demand something grand Not this cell so bland But a world of my command And my vivid other in a moment unplanned
