a dream in the dream we call life

this is one of my earlier works and i chose to use rhyme just to create a flow to it. enjoy!

Waves crash about me in my silent reverie
I listen as they cascade around intensely
At the back of my mind I see myself
I feel the might, the strength, the surge

I am but a leaf, floating helplessly
Being carried by raging torrents aimlessly
Being tossed around in this great adversity
Not knowing where it would plan to take me

I sense fear and it starts to consume me
Everything starts to be unclear
I have no idea what is happening
But I know, it is bound for something

Suddenly I was jerked from my mindless state
I look around and I started to wait
Something hustled here and there
But I was in too much of a shock to care

Not knowing what to do I started to walk
Not realizing I just resumed the journey I was in
I went on my way in silence for I dare not talk
In my journey to what must be from what has been.
