Description
Jobs are laid to rest againsome are finished, most undone.
Drawing toward that place within
to distant lands with blazing suns...
Anything you want to be
and everything you know you're not.
In the land of sleepless dreams
where goals are reached, and souls are lost.
People daydream of this place
and let the real world pass them by.
Trapped within a shrinking space
they're forced to watch their loved ones die.
But at the ending of the day
when all the bells have finally tolled.
The prison of their life abates
and sink to pillows made of gold.
And for the briefest stretch of time
a tortured soul feels full of hope.
The land where dreaming calms the strife
and lives the dreams of tattered souls...
::End::

oh my! This is beautiful. As beautiful as a dream one might say
I think you may have a winner with this one...
Psalm 139:13
For you created my inmost being. You knit me together in my mothers womb.

boy, you can read my mind however.. it's been a while since i last dreamt, and it was NOT a pleasant one... anyway, this is the best submission yet for the fw challenge - maybe because i can relate to it the most..
you somehow always have the right words for each particular poem
