Dream.Lost And Found.

Was lost in a dream, had found the bliss
The eyes wide shut, sure not to miss
A trance so deep, almost death reminisce

Divine slumber in the lap of night
Surrendered to the stillness sans a fight
The eyes shut, drained of all light
Suddenly, what was that? A flight, fright or fight
Reality struck with all its might
My dream, lost- was blight......

Did you come across it?
Please return, it's mine
Wouldn't be any use, not thine
For me, it's sacred, my shrine......

Asked East, it pointed to West
Asked North, said South was the best.
Went to the woods, said you won't find it anywhere in these nest/s
Looked at the skies, someone yelled from the heavens
"Big deal, this is every one's dream
I thought yours was different"
Sheepish, turned to the earth
Overheard-"Of fools, here, there is no dearth"

Lost and tired
Heart, in dejection, mired
Shut the eyes, imagination fired
Nestled within was the dream
All decked up prior to pyre...................
