Question: Is someone else dreaming!?
I dream

I dream of stars, floating in my eyes
of worlds, peaceful and calming
with comet trails…playing tag
and milky pots a stirring

I dream of oceans all shades of blue
with whales and dolphins leading
while riding white capped rollers
and chasing waves just for sport

I dream of but a single family
leaving no more redden dyes
or staining worlds here and there
claiming what is never theirs’

I dream shedding no more of my tears
for tears are holes filled with black
and blackness takes all it can
while leaving… a nothingness
