Living in Dreamland

Living in dreamland

 

Somewhere in my sleep

I’m hiding in my dreams

When I wake

My dreams

They disappear

I fear

Do I disappear?

 

I become shy

I feel I’m living such a lie

I fear when I die

People will wonder “Who was she”

But I wonder, who am I?

 

I escape from reality

I wonder what makes me

I say goodnight to the bad day

Some of the pain goes away

And I hide in my dreams

Only there do I know

What life truly means

Author's Note

I orginally wrote this for the contest "all about me" Then I realised it isn't ALL about me exactly and that not what I want to say in a poem all about me anyway...
Hope you like it

This was great! I loved it! Simple words but I don't know, it had a lot of meaning to me. Flow was excellent, and rhyming was good too. Sometimes we just want to get away from it all and live in the world of our dreams. Its always perfect there. Its always nice. Its a shame its just in our dreams.

Often I wonder who am I..?
And It always reminds me of the movie
anger management (yes! that annoying movie!) were Adam Sandler gets asked to tell whom he is and he cannot answer that.. (Just reminded me of that.. anyways)
Excellent write.. Keep it up! I loved it!
