The Edge of Consciousness

There are sunsets and
Silhouettes
Just over the horizon
Dancing in the wind of a shore
        seen in dreams
A soft extreme
Of gentle schemes
Scheming away
                     for
                           years
, it seems
Over the horizon is harder to achieve
Than first meets the eye,
       always in dreams.
So sing me to sleep
To let my mind seep
Into sunsets and silhoettes
Dancing in the wind
    Of a shore yet to achieve.

This is quite beautiful, and I love how you arranged it. Interesting rhyme scheme, and wonderful imagery.
