…of dreams

In the star infused
crystal shimmered waters
of the meandering night

I am slowly drifting
in the silken waters
of shoreless rivers

here in the darkness
as alone as the sea
time flows unseen

in the depths of slumber
lost in the winding currents
of my own mind

murmurs and echoes
of memories and dreams
ebb and flow like the tides

in this soft oblivion
of a world without time
nothing is real yet all is possible

I feel myself drifting
breaking free from the tides
and I glimpse a distant shore

then caught in the currents
once more I disappear
into the deep pool of dreams
