Dream Unto Eternity

Poem Commentary

It's been a while since I've posted something new, but here it is. This just came to me today as I was outside watching my niece play. I'm strange, I know.

Dream Unto Eternity

Footsteps fall heavy as I approach the dais,

Sounding so solemn in the vastness of quiet

As I step under the cold light of redemption,

I find myself stripped of my every pretension.

And all that remains is the core of my soul

Released from the wretchedness, ragged but whole

I sleep now to await my dreaming in lieu

Of forsaking false visions seeming so true

Now, under the cold light that surely preserves me

I will keep dreaming until I find Eternity.
