Between eyes open and shut

Dreaming

By Hailey Frogley Published 3 years ago 1 min read

It’s on the tip of my tongue,

And then it’s gone

I was just dreaming about something…

A place beyond words

Eternal landscape’s splendor suffusing every sense,

Where lidless eye and memory are the body of God

Bring it back to me!

I am starving for sustenance

My quivering spirit strikes a resonance,

And my vocal cords respond

Shrieking!

Because I am desperate for the dream to come back,

For the chorus of the source to surround me

Shrieking!

Because I was dreaming beside the heart of the Universe

And then I woke up,

Hungry with wanting

surreal poetry
