i’m off to my journey
to the world of my dreams
as my eyelids get heavy, i depart
my breath gets steady, and i fly
as i am rendered unconscious
i come alive
i lie in my bed with everywhere to go
i do what i want and want what i know
i am allowed a break from the reality of this world
free to explore while i am at peace in my mind
i swim in this blanket of warmth
rest my head on this cloud-like pillow
i am safe from the great outside
instead, observing from a clear glass window
i am the realest version of myself
as calm as i possibly could be
and as i wake up from this sweet, sweet slumber
i wonder
where will my next dream take me?
