Hidden Dreams

by J. Allen Wilson — Read all 1,629 poems by J. Allen Wilson

For the lack of dreams, the people perish.

Thursday, October 16, 2003


Poem Artwork
 

 The desire for sleep overwhelms me,


 as I sail through a silent and mystical sea.


 While paradoxes in time haunt the


  Hidden chambers of this weary mind.


Scantly little if anything remains of me.


 For ghostly visions of lost souls do creep.


 


Alas though, the winds of desire


 still muster force against the tides of change.


Yet the deadly currents of time remind me still,


 this silent course of dreams will remain.


So sail I on through this mystical sea,


 wanting nothing but peaceful sleep.


I


Close


My Eyes


I


Sleep


As


Hidden dreams


Die.

Words of a master poet, the spirit that lives within, wisdom that speaks through the halo of the light. Master poet of the spoken words. The link between the heavens and the earth. "Respect"
