I dream away at night
Away, away from here
Far, far away

This bed, a boat to sail
My dreams, the oars
That fly  me up, and up, and up
And away 

I dream at night
My secret dreams
Dreams of sweet things, of soft things
Of things that only I can see,
Can hold, can call my own

These dreams, these imaginations
A fancy, a flight
A dashing run through open windows
And unlocked doors
They carry me away, away to places unseen, unknown, and
Untouched by casual hands

I dream away at night
Away, away from here
Far, far away

I surrender to sensation
Senses awash, alive with every good thing
In dreams I see, I touch, I taste,
I hear, and smells all the possibilities
Drink in life, and eat it's fruit

At night, in my bed
In my dreams
I'm away, away from here
Far, far away
And free, free to be...

A ribbon at a time..." - Emily Dickinson

Ah, a person whose dreams are sensational, my tend to drift toward the dark side of the street.

Nice work, MorningStar.
