closing my eyes I sleep <br />body floating in darkness <br />without substance <br />whether I lay up or down <br />or sideways <br />I do not know <br />there is no direction here <br />all around me in the blackness <br />fireflies seemingly twinkled <br />a vast horde fading away <br />into unimaginable distance <br />those were dreams <br />the dreams of men and women <br />they were my dreams <br />I rove the darkness ably <br />darting and weaving through the sparkles <br />trying to find you <br />somewhere across this world of dreams <br />all glittering in-front of me<br /><br />Eila Mahima Jaipaul<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-firefly-in-the-world-of-dreams/
