The Vault of Dreams
The Vault of Dreams
Subliminal moments flutter past
Shadowy faces forgotten or lost
Emerge to live anew in our darkest view
This we unnaturally self imbue
Passive observers we partly engage
In a place with others on a stage
Time has no domain in this dimension
We are subject to another retention
The natural elements seem remote
As we sail about without a stroke
It is unreal and unrehearsed
Not warned of or directed but guided
With no land in sight or even grounded
Dreams, dreams in the chaos of the night
Where we wander about out of sight
Fantasies and fears collide in confusion
For everything experienced is an illusion

Very cleverly written and somewhat dark Keith( forgive the pun). You capture, brilliantly, the "chaos of the night!" 😎
