'Awake inside a dream' is quite nice. It reminds me of something I wrote ... yeah. I smell a flashback! *flashes back to self* Mm ... good times.

Anywho, it's quite nice and makes me happy in my soul. Nicely written.

"Awake inside a dream" is lovely. It's interesting how this line follows "into a dreamy countenance." Thpugh the "dreamy" borders on the overdone, I think that I like the relatedness.

I'm a little put off by the use of "dream" or a derivative twice in ten words, but hey, dream is one of those words for which one-word synonyms are impossible. Maybe it's that redundance that makes me see this as a little less inspired than your other pieces. bella

I love your word choice.

Interesting poem! It's one of those very philosophical pieces, with the strange thought of being awake while sleeping. I don't know that I like using "dreamy" as an adjective, though, since you use "dream" at the end. Other than that, nice work. Keep writing! :)

Simple, but elegant! Wonderful word choices.
