Dream
listening to the crackle of distortion
my mind a wallowing contortion
of endless mystery
grey mass enveloping me
I cant even try to breathe
reaching to pull myself out from under
the deep water I plunder
but i'm lost within
scraping, breaking my skin
getting colder and colder
grasping my shoulders
I sigh why am i down here
i'm not going to drown here
strength is my retribution
slowly focused to contribution
hazy emotion, lackluster devotion
suddenly my inside is fire
overwhelming desire to escape
Grabbing the edge of the ice
pulling myself upwards
away from the frozen dark lake
I sit atop a frozen slab
my heart pounding, ears ringing
shivering I smile, I know i'm safe
I awaken, it was a just a dream
