Layers of the Unconscious Mind

In layers of the unconscious mind, Where desire and fear are hard to find. Through symbols and there metaphors, We seek to find those open doors. Through corridors of thought, we roam, Hearts beating like a metronome. A subconscious dream within a dream, We search for truth in things we've seen. The introspection we are searching for, A message wrote in semaphore. This message we don't understand. Whilst dreaming, we're in no-man's-land. Self-Reflection in the things we seek, As wild eyes flicker in REM sleep. We awake within our lucid dream, To find things aren't quite what they seem. This false awakening controls. Whilst sleeping, searching for our soul. Our soul search late into the night, We fight our way towards the light. A cryptic sign which makes no sense, We wonder, lost in dreams suspense. In search of truth, we must explore, A paradox found at every door. In the labyrinth of our complex mind, Is a truth one day I hope we'll find. A dream with secrets hidden deep, Dreams secrets kept, yet whilst we still sleep.
