Dreams Are Awesome

Step into the subconscious, out of reality.

My! How fine the world is in my mentality!

Down the rabbit hole I go,

ignoring all responsibilities and reminders though.

Lo and behold, is that my high school crush?

I sure am glad no one can see me blush.

Now where is this river of thoughts taking me?

But I see a waterfall ahead of the river, not a sea!

Down down down I fall from the top

but surely, I won't die from this surreal drop?

In a turn of events however, I learn to fly, 

Away into the sky so I will not die.

But as Newtown said, what goes up must come down.

Left, right, foward, backward and around,

Falling, falling, falling, falling up it seems.

Strange how life is like in dreams!

Within moments, i find myself not in the air but on the ground.

A feeling emerges, the feeling of something wicked inbound.

I turn around and death is right behind my back.

Damn do I run away so far off course of the dream track.

The fright leaves me now awake and now feeling sore.

Wow what a feeling, I thought I was done for!

But upon waking up did I ponder

that dreams were such a wild blue yonder.

Nowhere else can you imagine running free from the outside world

or even create a whole city twirled!

Dragons, wealth, cars, sex, knowledge

Hell even if you're dumb you can still dream to go to college!

Dreams are the force that keeps us going in life.

They can be such a pain like an edge of a knife

but they are also the motives that keep us from strife.

Yes, dreams are only kept in our head

but without such imagination, it's better off we be dead!
