Without Qualm or Sorrow, Live

The onset of dreams,
the seeping into realms unknown,
like water under a door, unopened,
but spreading like the seeds of thoughts sewn;
and I feel that swirling relentless force,
directing me to circumstances sought,
in answer to my qualms and emotions questioned,
assessing my responses in quick succession.

And while my dreams run clean,
I am aware of myself, my thoughts it seems,
trying to understand the plays ensuing,
and my deep feelings accruing;
how I twist and turn, accept and move in response,
to each and every fateful ruse,
pulling my emotions to reach conclusions,
my mind to be satisfied and never lose.

For no matter the situation, how dire it appears,
there is always a resolution,
a learned lesson to quell my fears,
and so I stand tall in clear resolve,
to face my nemesis, my past echoes of
the mistakes I’ve made, the wrongs I’ve written,
and in recompense, I’ve learned to listen,
to myself, that single voice within.

Now I welcome dreams,
their resolution my making,
for I hold not the past and all my disappointments,
rather set them free but hold their gifts,
my appointments all in future’s hands,
and past to fall behind, let dust settle,
and in dreams pave my tomorrow,
without qualm or sorrow, live.
