You Were There

Dream

I had a dream


Where was I?

...I didn’t know

I felt as if there was nothing to worry about

I wanted to stay

I needed to stay there

But the voices told me - go!

I flew away on a cloud

Back to this world

Without a care in mind

Someday I will return

But until then I’ll just keep dreaming.
