Space Time Terror(an original poem)

Here is a poem about a recent dream I had. Let me know what you think in the comments section below. I can tell you this dream really brought me back to my childhood.

I trace the sky with my fingers
Narrow passageways where my soul lingers
When in doubt, I space out
No doubt I'm in outerspace, can you relate?
I switch my pace as I come down
Steady as these calm bath waters where my fears drown
heavy footsteps hit the ground
Pretend you're sleeping Don't make a sound
Silent nights over violent fights
Darkness isn't so scary when I hear the snores in the hallway
My body is still but my mind is as open as my eyes, time to play
This time I won't wander far
Tip toe to the mirror and summon a friend
Stare at the figure in front of where we are
Push the limits of your mind
Push it too far
Contorted face and eyes aglow
They'll never see me, they'll never know
The darkness is not my foe

Sort:  

(you hear an engine rev and horn honk)
MEEP! MEEP!
(the window on the humvee rolls down to reveal a warm smiling face)

Stunning! It’s a very lyrical poem, very beautiful.

Followed you and found your post from @shadowspub and her #pypt 💓💓

Wow stace! I love the image of "tiptoe to the mirror and summon a friend". Too many times we see our reflections as our enemy- love how you turned this on its head. Beautifully done.

I'm glad you picked up on that! That was the part of my dream that really brought me back to my childhood when I just couldn't get over myself I was so fly LOL. Maybe I can channel some of that energy in 2018 😝♥
