Sleep a dream

Thoughts ...

Every dream is a child,
don't constantly feed
mercilessly with
past regrets sorrows
the flown time
unbearable made decisions
tears and pains
forgotten wishes and wills.
Come out of depression,
Its a pit.
"It's darkness here".
Yes you see darkness,
be thankful for
SEEING.
And that's the way out
from darkness and
sleep to
dream again.

Author's Note

Lovely use of metaphor in this finely penned poem. In order to appreciate the light, we must first experience the darkness. In darkness, the light is still there, we just don't see it. It's like knowing the stars are there during the day, but we can't see them until evening time and darkness envelops the land. Sometimes our dreams are better than our reality, but we can't continue to sleep, we must wake up and get on with our life or it will pass us by in the blink of an eye. Great play with words, dear Jeyanthi. Excellent inking! Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed reading this insightful and thought provoking poem...

Dear Marie, that's absolutely right... your way of reading excels in each reviews and interpretation you give... thank you for the kindness and your words of wishes... yes dear, seeing is the sense... blind people sees the world in differs from our world... when My mom appointed to write exam blind school students, their interactions and their views varies with our day today normal life...

Time has its way with the 'YOU' held in warm arms, somehow and however difficult. First - when ready, find a way or example to slowly awake to the dawn and what it brings. Eyes and heart grows brighter and lighter. Time is the essence. Time lets in the sun and its rays of hope for life and your you-ness. Your words are brief but the reason for them can be lasting.. YOU have found your own remedy.

This poem is full of emotion and hope. It says that dreams are like children they need care, not pain from the past. It kind of conveys the message about seeing darkness and being thankful, which is powerful and that awareness is the first step of healing. In simple words, it encourages us to rise from depression and learn to dream again.
Lovely work.

I needed this poem today, this is very true ...
"Yes you see darkness,
be thankful for
SEEING.
And that's the way out
from darkness and
sleep to
dream again."
There's no better way to say this. Thank u for encouraging words.

Hello 👋 dear... welcome 🙏 thank you for the visit... yes, that's right... as we are growing each day, we must also consider growing out of our past if it hinders... thank you for sharing your thoughts and review..🙏

[Aarti Sriram]

Very hopeful lines dear. Like a kind friend holding hands of another leading her from a dark room to the room with light. It may seem simple but reinforcing positivity is the first step and a sustained way to come out of any negative space. To see the dark and then will be able to dream and then see light into the day. Its a process you describe sweetly in your poem dear Jeyanthi.

[Jeyanthi]

That's lovely way you describe it... yes, sometimes we need this simple words so we are not lost... thank you for kindness and lovely comments... ofcourse this space gives us some hope.. like hands to reach... meeting you and inspirational write and also giving now and then your showering encouragement 😊 😀...
Hope you having fun day Sister...

In our minds eye we can always see no matter what blinds us in life. I think quite a popular writer once said "to sleep perchance to dream!"
😃

[Jeyanthi]

Oh God ! But it's consider as one of the peaceful sleep... maybe Hamlet should long live...
Yes the mind eye gives us endless loop of thoughts while deciding to sleep though eyes closed and sleep deprived and hopeless....
