Nocturnal Reverie

A poetic dreamscape, a journey through the ethereal realms of sleep and shadows.

Drifting away into my restless sleep,

Nightfall bestows its sleepless kiss.

Slowly closing my eyes, I drift away into the metaphysical deep.

In shadows, dreams and nightmares steep,

A dance with darkness, a haunting bliss.

Drifting away into my restless sleep.

Moonlit whispers, secrets to keep,

Each slumbered thought, a twist.

Slowly closing my eyes, I drift away into the metaphysical deep.

Illusions dance, their secrets to peep,

No refuge is found in the nocturnal abyss.

Drifting away into my restless sleep.

The tapestry of dreams, a fabric to sweep,

Through realms unseen, where phantoms exist.

Slowly closing my eyes, I drift away into a metaphysical deep.

A symphony of shadows, a vigil to reap,

The darkness beckons, a spectral tryst.

Drifting away into my restless sleep.

For my soul longs to stay in the metaphysical deep.

    your imagery here - the dreamworld - is evocative and provocative! you only have a few lines here to communicate your thoughts with this images , It gets a little muddled and you end up sacrificing your last line. I would liuke to see you edit this some more, so it works even better than it does. best wishesa, ward
