The Awakening

By mysticventures

The nightmares, the fantasies, the dramas
Oh how I love the dreamtime

Where every fear is revealed

And every wish fulfilled

Ah yes,
The wonderful river of dreams
Riding the current of the mind itself
Life passes by
In vivid
Living
Color

In placid delusion
I kick back
And enjoy the scenery

Thoughts drifting

Only on occasion do I take the helm
Content as I am to allow the ethereal winds to guide me
Satisfaction or disaster awaits
Around every bend

But to me it matters not

Cause I'm just along for the ride

Hey -

Wait a minute !

Holy Shit !

This is not a Dream !!!

    .. I was floating along this, quietly and peacefully, until the last 3 lines leapt out at me. Nicely done.
