In a dream

As you lay down in your bed,
Sleep begins to take you to a far away land.
Where your mind takes your thoughts and hopes,
And turns them into an alternate reality.
You know you have control of what happens,
Yet your mind is so fixated
That you let things spiral out of your grasp.
And what seems improbable in there, feels real.
Anything is possible in a dream,
But then you wake up!
And thats when you wonder:
If this reality with sorrow, pain, and anger
Was actually the dream.
