Array ( [sid] => 37672 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => In dreams [time] => 2004-03-07 04:49:40 [hometext] => Dreams can be more than they seem....................... [bodytext] => I try to close my eyes again
and still I see them there.
The corpses of the slain
have never rested easy.
I hear them all around
calling out all my names.
I scream for peace
but they won't leave me be.
I feel their flesh against
mine and begin to panic.
I should apologies at
their grinning faces
but the dead can't forgive.
They want my company
for what I had done.
I fight with no real hope
there are too many here.

I awake in a place
that should not be.
A place I used to know.
The barn, the house,
the fields, and trees.
All just as I remember.
Purple sky and three
silver moons should not be.
This place is gone from
so long ago.
My love calls to me again.
She's in the bar waiting.
I don't want to go but must.
I throw open the doors
and am accosted by
a thousand smells I know.
She sings from the loft above.
I see it all again.
The mirror that broke,
the horses kept,
even the six-legged spiders.

She calls again and
I'm in the Sea.
She sings in sirens tune.
She takes my hand smiling
saying be good this time.
A kiss on the cheek goodbye.

Another chance.

A warning.

Dreams can be quite haunting. Yes sometimes they are more than they seem. Your dream sounds dark and mystical. I enjoyed this poem very much. Kie
