I Am Dream

I am nothing, that’s what they say, simply it’s the truth,
But if not for simply, I am everything,
I am everything you know, everything you believe,
I am your happiest moment and worst regret,
I am spoken about, laughed about and cried about,
I am around you always, drifting in the back of your mind,
Sometimes so faint you wouldn’t know I was there,
Everything I feel you do, everything you feel I do,
No one realises I am you, I am everything about you,
I am nothing but everything as you will soon see,
Look into me, see me truly, I am strong at times weak at others, just like you,
See me, know me, realise what I am, I know you know, I am you,
I am dream
