Light Or Darkness, a Dream Or Reality?

In the light I see people everywhere. I can't mistake joy for sorrow; For their laughter makes me smile, Yet I don't feel like looking forward to tomorrow. In the darkness I see nothing, In the end I'm drenched in comfort. No one can hurt me here. No one can find me here. Still in the night, Moving through my mind, I allow myself to dream. Moonlit waters, streams flowing, I dance in the shadows of the trees. Minding myself, unaware of my surroundings. A hard, cold breeze blows, Whipping me back to reality. I somehow know that dream will not be true

Dreams are creative thoughts as we slumber, keeping our mind working, we dream when we are awake also, but as there is so much going on, we rarely see them, and they can come true, lovely poem Brittany, James
