THE REOCCURRING DREAM

/ deuxiemepeau

 

I have
reoccurring dreams
where I swim
in seas

where I have
no feet but fins
where I have
guts and gills

I have
reoccurring dreams
where I swim
in seas

where the bottom
is boundless
where possibilities
are endless

I have
reoccurring dreams
where I swim
in seas
while in reality
I drown
in shallow streams

    • Thank you so much Elizabeth. It still makes me smile to think people are reading what I’m writing. For so long writing was just a pastime and a little personal psychoanalysis, now my minds ramblings are out there! Best wishes Dami x
