Title: Lucid Dreaming
I lie sleepless in the night,
In the dark without a light.
At the darkness, my eyes stare,
My body is still but my mind aware.
It is all quiet no outside noise,
But in my mind, I hear a voice.
CALM YOUR MIND IF YOU WANT TO SEE,
LET GO OF THE WORLD AND COME WITH ME.
Now am scared don't know what to think,
Can't close my eyes afraid I will sink.
I take deep breaths to clear my head,
And find myself no longer in bed.
Without a body, I float around,
It speaks again I hear that sound.
COME TO ME I WILL LIGHT THE WAY,
FOLLOW THE PATH AND DON'T GO STRAY.
So I walk the path with an open mind,
Unaware of what truth I will find.
It took so long but I reached the peak,
A man appears and begins to speak.
WHY DO YOU STOP WHEN YOU MUST BEGIN,
TO FIND THE TRUTH YOU MUST LOOK WITHIN.
I get closer to see his face,
But he disappears without a trace.
Confused by this I sit and rest,
Wondering if all of this was just a test.
But I have come too close to hesitate,
So I close my eyes and meditate.
And as I begin to drift away,
I hear the voice begin to say.
LOOK AT MY FACE FOR I AM YOU,
AND IN YOUR HEART YOU KNOW ITS TRUE.
All of a sudden I feel the water splash against my head
And I wake up back in my bed.
