tonight i want to dream and live inside that dream
this world is too much to go to sleep is one escape
a plot to release schemes once only a vague gleam
where the realities touch and time changes shape
to be able to order thoughts to create sets of action
make the steps dependent causing all to intertwine

illusions of those ascendent sipping their bitter wine
as the dreams turn and swirl i fall into a deep vortex
swept down into a void where violent currents pull
at the center of the world in a space memory collects
souls waiting to be destroyed both the empty and full
will dreams be of happiness love pleasure and peace
exposing internal sappiness and wonders that cease
