I sleep in the clouds, dream in the sky,
I'll keep dreaming as life passes me by,
I think my dreams keep me sane,
I dream of happiness, a life without pain,
some people say I'm stuck in this place,
and I'll never go anywhere,
but in my dreams I've already been there,
I know some day I'll have to wake up,
but I feel the real world is more like a nightmare,
I'm safe in my closed eye wonderland,
this poem goes to all the dreamers that understand,
no matter what they say...
keep your dreams but don't dream your life away.
~Ashley L. May
There's this saying that if someone appears in your dreams, then that means that that person was thinking about you before they fell asleep. Though it is a childish fantasy that I have, I really do believe in this. That being said, dreams hold valuable meaning to me, probably more than most people, and this poem reminded me of this.
