The Edge Of My Dreams

Disjointed scenarios

Crashing  waves

Falling asunder

Until wakefulness saves

********

Eyes barely open

My brain still afar

Trying to capture

While the dream is ajar

*****

Surrounded by people

Some whom I know

Some who have passed

A long time ago

********

At times reoccurring

Places I’ve been

A maze of rooms

I”m afraid to go in

*********

Scattered old lovers

Rekindling vows

Always beholden

To what life disallows

******

At that delicate moment

Of the night’s escapade

My eyes start to open

Adventures then fade

********

Leaving me in wonder

And the utmost suspense

I try to hang on to

What is now all past tense

*********

So there I lie

A vague memory

On the edge of my dreams

On the edge of me
