Todd Aguilar Jr. Poet Lyric

Dreams Part 1

Dreams are not what they seem
you wanna die in your sleep
die when you scream
from free falling
drowning the pain suffering
torment sweetness dragged along through time
through this sleep weakness
waking up I'll be fine
your dreams...
I dont understand mine
so for now I will just take it as a sign
when my eyes roll to the back of my head and I resign
and I dream
Dreams are not what they seem
you wanna die in your sleep
die when you scream
dreams. -TA

Elle M. January 21, 2024 at 1:29 AM Everything in this poem is enthralling. The repetition, the metaphors, the wording. Oh! everything seems to work in perfect harmony with each other to create a piece that's so relatable, the words stick to the back of my mind.
