Dreams Seem So Real

Dreams seem so real
  The truth they conceal 
You're sure you're about to die

There is no escape
  That's how you feel
Wake up ~ in your bed you lie

It's deeper than meets the eye. The dream is a riddle. The one who solves it will never fear death again. By the way, the poet gives a reader the key. It is an act of charity on the part of the poet)

You are right, provided the dream is deep. Mine tend to be so shallow, based solely on what is happening n my thoughts and/or life now. Thanks, Kurt. ~ Gershon

I have had these, and they are more real-feeling than real-life.
