The World of Sleep

The light within the dark of mind
The world we so desperately seek to find
Body is calm, mind is clear
Yet you may find the seed of fear
You may bask in the gardens of heaven or plummet to the flames of hell
With a slim chance that you can tell
Which your mind has chosen, until it is too late
You cannot control your fate
All rests within your subconscious
Let me warn you, please be cautious
A thought can be quite heartless
When you think it is so harmless
