Dreams
What is spiritual enlightenment?
Is it the reaching of nirvana?
Or is it the ability of your spirit
To leave your body,
To visit other people and places?
If that is so,
Then we all have that capacity,
Subconsciously, unconsciously,
For it is a fact of life.
Some people visit these places in color,
Others, in black and white.
They may be mirrors of our reality, or
The most incredibly fantastical place anyone could imagine.
Sometimes they may frighten us,
We go to places that may leave us in a cold sweat,
That make the hair on your neck stand up straight,
And send shivers down your spine.
They may soothe your consciousness
With a peacefulness that can only be found here.
They are a part of us,
We know not life without them.
You may visit the one you love the most,
Or the one you most despise.
They make us whole,
They complete us,
They connect us to each other
In a way nothing we do consciously could.
We understand each other through these soul trips,
To become one with the universe around us,
Living and non-living alike.
