Dreams vs Reality

Is there a difference

By shallon gregersonPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

I am not as I may seem

Who knows the difference

Between Reality and a Dream?

Some people say

A dream is what you want and

Reality is what you need

However,

many people will disagree

My perception is sitting on a fence

I’ve wandered both directions

Each time is more intense

All throughout the day

Approaching feelings and flashes

Memories in my mind never fade

Is this a live stream?

A character in a mask

Lives I cannot redeem

Connection to alabaster and jade

Visions of my past life

Hyperbaric chambers for healing and aide

Is this a dream

Because I am awake

Is this reality

My heads starting to ache

surreal poetry

About the Creator

shallon gregerson

I conspire, create and love making my mind think
