Poem #3

Well, I don't know what to call this...I guess you can call it a poem-thingy? I don't know...anyways, I wrote this about a dream I had quite a few years ago. It really stuck out in my mind, and I've never forgotten it.

A pale moon hovers quietly over the sky,

looking down on all that rests.

I slowly slip into the darkness that overcomes me,

finding myself in familiar, yet strange territory.

I remember people, many people, surrounding me,

but trying to make myself the only one there.

I’m aware of all that is around,

but unable to grasp it.

I walk an unsteady path, on shaky ground.

Starting on my hands and knees, hesitant to look up,

not knowing of what may be.

Shadows of doubt creep into my mind,

making my fears so surreal.

I feel my body come to a stop.

I’m unable to move.

While frozen in my fear, I see the image in front of me.

A vision so clear in my mind.

“Steady, steady…” are the words repeatedly being said to me.

Full of strength and encouragement, lifting me up to my feet.

I walk safely, without worried thoughts.

Yet, one thought remains,

I trust in you.
