When you dream, what do you become?
Do you fall short of all the glory once bestowed,
to reconcile with a level intrepid, yet unknown?
What would one bestow upon receiving the gift to
what one could see if only one believed in what one
could dream?
You become a dreamer when you experience imagi-
nation through random think or sleeping.
You won these vision made up in your mind
Some will fulfill the greater expectations, the less
valued will shimmer away,
only to fall astray.
Do you become a stranger, an angel, a tree?
Do you become what one would want you to be?
Do you become a lover, an atheist, a plea?
Maybe a promise, a joke a possibility?
So you become an individual, independent, free?
Or a slave a habit.. .are you perishing?
Do you become what you feel?
Do you become what you are?
Are you yourself when no one is looking?
Are you the same person I see?
What do you become when you dream?
