filled with thought
layered in dream
lost in this place
where I can be
anyone or anything
my heart desires
or fears may bring
to the surface
in crashing waves
with all the riddles
my mind has saved
to ponder on
this one long night
to solve the puzzle
or just to fight
against myself
then place them there
back on the shelf
where they sit and stare
plan and scheme
which horrors to bring
to the fitted sleep
of tomorrow’s dreams
