Lost in a world that’s not my own
Trapped till I find the truth
here I stay forever in my dream

Not knowing im here
Every touch so real, every smell,
Every sense, active in this fantasy

Days go by and by
Thinking if I die will I awaken
In my own world

Yet I don’t know my own world
Or what it would be like
So used to this fantasy
Yet still wishing I could escape

Back to the world where my life awaits
Unknown steps onto a new path
Things that ive learnt holding my hand
Helping me through

Everyone I see in this fantasy world
Maybe awaits in the ones not dreamt
Just delaying their life
Till they figure it out

I long to wait up my time will come
To that world of unknown paradise
Where everything is just right

This dream that I live is just a given time
To adjust to my feelings
Before I unleash my truth self upon the world

Death is a blessing an end to the dream
All lessons learnt more to be seen
Don’t be scared it’s ok to awake

Your life waits till your souls complete
Slowly growing up in this so called dream
Till its sent on to the real world
Where the adult souls roam

The dreams of a young man's world...to leave the auspices of a child's dream, to those of the adult world, is indeed, a small "death" of sorts.  So many young people don't realize that adults still hang on to their dreams too...and struggle hard to make them a reality.

So, we're not really all that different, it seems...

Well done, Lee.  I enjoyed the metaphors...thank you!

Lee, I thought you had abandoned us! Good to see that you're back!

Lee, perhaps it is life that is but a dream.

I enjoy reading your ponderances. You have an imaginitive, philosophical and highly creative mind--and I always read your poems twice to look for the deeper meanings.

Welcome back, Dear Stone of Red!

Loves 'n hugs,
EA

Impressive write, as always.
You are living your life intensely while you try to find answers. We are all on this path, trying to learn. Dreams are part of it, even if it seems they are located in a paralell world.

Love, Margherita
