Sestina: Dreams

For a contest....kets go inception style...hehehe lol

Dreams

Aren't dreams a curious thing?

To wake up and not know

To enter the world that is your mind

And see into the depths of your soul

Or to be cut short and to have to wonder

What would have happened in the end

Would you have met a bloody end?

A death to claim your fragile soul?

Maybe a treasure of which only you could know

Oh now you're hoping- and thinking! It makes you wonder.... 

Oh yes, dreams can be a terrible thing

That trick and decieve and fool your mind

You can visualize everything in your mind

You got the girl the money and you don't need a thing

The dream itself makes you into a person of wonder

An idol, an icon, another celebrity off the deep end

But you lose yourself in the dream and can't possibly know

That the dream is steadily eating at your soul

You cry out to the Lord to save your soul

And then you realize it's all in your mind

But still it makes you wonder

about your life when it comes to an end

Will you become an inanimate object? A thing?

Or will you just wake up? I think you know....

You can never know

for sure. That's what faith is for- to temporarily soothe your soul

Cause in your dream, you might not wake up at the end

But it won't matter because your mind

will become just a thing

And never again will you wonder

In eternity you don't wonder

In eternity all you have is your soul

In eternity it really is the end, because there is NO END

And you only need to know 

One thing

That it's all in your head. All in your mind.

I guess dreams are a terrible wonderful thing

Mysterious and literally full of wonder

It always makes you question: The End?

I share the same faith as you and i could see that in your writing. I like how you said that in a subtle way instead of just shouting it out. It makes people wonder what you mean and they dive in as well. My dreams are filled of the craziest of things,like getting shot at in a mall, or saving the galaxy from some villain. I have often thought about what i will be remembered as and i liked how you announced you did not want to be forgotten.
Well done
