Just a Dream
When you fall asleep
and youre counting sheep
you dream a beautiful dream
where everything in the world is as they seem.
get lost in the world
thats never been shown.
that world that can be described
by one word, dream.
the dream that you can only see
that you wish you could believe, was real
but can only know
it was just a dream.
waking up from that place
where your mind escapes
your in a dream that seems so real
and everything you touch, you can feel.
is that where youre meant to be
in that special place that you can only see?
that you wish you could believe was real
but can only know
it was just a dream.
when the nightmares come the world starts to roar
as the waves crash along the shore
the water getting past you head
not being able to swim, you know youre dead.
hearing that last roar of thunder
and taking your last breath before going under
you wake up sweating in your bed
thinking of words that cant be said
but you only know
that it was just a dream
Dreams do so many things
giving us nightmares
a life you want
a life that feels so real
but when you wake up
you know
it was just a dream.

this is a really good poem! it's funny, though, because really recently i wrote something a lot like this but it's called it's just a dream, and it's about a nightmare. but whatever i really like this.
