What is a dream? 

A topic I am familiar with 

To what extent can we think independently to form a conscious decision 

Based on circumstance? 

Recommendation ?

Is a dream merely a physical manifestation of one’s inner thoughts? 

Or just the unconscious mind wandering about the endless possibilities of what could be?

Do you dream? 

I do not.

Why would that be? 

I cannot fathom a world that isn’t mine.

On multiple accounts I am unable to piece together my own puzzle. 

A broken record that masters can’t play.

A broken heart that the body can beat.

Words that the mouth cannot utter. 

Sights the eyes can’t see 

Do you want to dream? 

I see no point in doing so. 

Why is that? 

Because I do not focus on the what ifs. 

The imagination either controls and consumes you 

or 

you could

Could ?

I do not dream. 

Why would that be? 

I do not know. 

Do you want to dream?

I do 

Why is that? 

I want to escape. 

Escape? From?

him.
