My thoughts, words, verses…

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.
