laying my head on the pillow, <br />there was deep darkness <br />around me <br />and through the darkness <br />i came across a world <br />most desirable by man, <br />pigs could fly without <br />anyone fearing for their lives, <br />people had faces brighter <br />than the morning sun, <br />everyone loved and treated <br />each other as though siblings who just reconciled <br /> <br />laying my head on the pillow, <br />how could this be, <br />everything i loved, <br />things i've come to like, <br />all existed in this place, <br />flowers, birds and fish <br />sang a song that knew <br />no sadness or sorrow, <br /> <br />laying my head on the pillow, <br />as if awakened from day dreaming and given <br />a reality check, <br />the world i had come to <br />know and love disappeared, <br />i was now in a place where <br />sadness, pain and sorrow <br />ruled everything that existed, <br />there was nowhere to run to, <br />it was a place without hope, <br />but i believed in hope <br />that one day the world <br />that once existed would <br />come back and this <br />would all just be a dream, <br /> <br />but things got worse, <br />no life existed, <br />even trees were without leaves, <br />the ground under my feet <br />started falling apart, <br />i grabbed on to the nearest branch but it broke off <br />and i was falling into the <br />darkness deep down <br />it was a bottomless pit, <br />then awakened and realized <br />i was just laying my head <br />on the pillow.<br /><br />benaiah sondashi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sweet-dreams-verses-nightmares/
