Behind closed eyes
Silence greets the dreamer in the dead of a shadowy night
The wight lies sighing as realities collide and entire worlds die inside,
Thoughts dancing violently behind closed eyes; searching blindly
beneath slumbers restless bed, tossing and turning under fleshy sheets.
Sleep is sweet escape from the clutter of days mind rays
Crashing into pieces once released through prisms gaze
Filling up the spaces (once condensed in matters gray)
With stains of hues and birthday balloons and hopes for better days.
Where do we go when our eyes are closed,
bodies stretched like corpses across their nightly sepulchre?

Sometimes, what’s perceived on the dreamscape doesn’t correlate with what unfolds during the waking hours, triggering an uncomfortable truth; conundrum.
Healing, is transformational, and edges us towards those better days, full of hope.
A great write, Sammy...

If my eyes didn't hurt so much from the monitor and TV screens
i would NEVER need to sleep.
Yes, i would miss out on communing with my Daughter and Fiancee who died in my past
but what in the present might i accomplish!? What inventions might i create!?
Alas, it's the digital screens that force me to sleep and there i solve cognitive problems, write poetry and in the dream world love
Your expressions here paint many images
where many can relate.
