Why we dream
It came to me in the night
Why it was that we dream.
It is not unfulfilled desires
That we hope to live in an alternate universe.
It is not unresolved conundrums
That we try to tackle with a resting mind.
No, it’s not a symbolic reenactment of issues
That the literal sense cannot comprehend.
Nor is it a replaying of the day’s events,
This time in slow motion.
It is so that my heart can refill my mind
Once it has been depleted of passions and sentiments
In the daily battle it fights.
