Requiem
"I began in a dream, and will end there as well"
Tommorow,
When I look upon the clouds
and imagine
I will close my eyes
and open them
to my last horrible
breaths.
My body decayed
My teeth yellowed.
That moment will stand stll,
and my whole life would've been
a glimpse of what could've been
as I fight, fight
to hold onto
potential wasted.

Author's Note
I was on an airplane about 2 years ago looking out at the tops of the clouds and thought to myself how blessed I was. Then I thought to myself what if this life was just a dream and I am really on my deathbed being shown an alternate more fullfilling life.

A very engaging write, Edward. You really have a knack for grabbing the reader's attention.
I prefer to believe every life is a dream and we wake upon experiencing death.
"on to" should be a single word.
