My Dream Within A Dream

Sometimes my dreams to me seem real
         I know I am awake.
Planning out my day’s events
   With good intentions make.
However, often cannot get.
    To where I need to be.
No matter how hard I will try.
   Something is stopping me.

My vison then becomes quite blurred.
    Why can’t I just move on?
I have a time frame to get there.
    I really should be gone.
Trapped in a force that holds me back. 
     I need a pair of wings.
And with that thought they will appear
   When blocked by silly things

Like a bird, I will soar high.
    Fly up into the blue.
I often dream, I’ve had this one.
   So great I’m telling you.
With no restrictions I am free
    Can go to anywhere.
Then in a flash, I am awake.
  My day then to prepare.
My Dream within a dream see!
