Out of Our Reach
Dreams come and go swiftly
Scattering themselves into separate compartments
Hiding their truths for the dreamer
Deciphered by no psychologist or psychiatrist
For by the time we see one, we have closed them off
Camouflaged their significance, if we knew what it was
Sometimes we are flying in our dreams.
Out of body, our souls free, as if we are in heaven.
It is when we come back to fast that we crash land.
Waking with a loud gasp as our soul
Hits our chest, heart pounding in fear
Eyes flutter open briefly
Dream laughs
Reenters the cosmos
Out of our reach
