Dreaming (a poem)
She had been wondering about what happens
when we have to leave this place
what happens when we have to go
what fears she longed to face
One night as she went to sleep
a strange feeling occurred
a light began to form
she never said a word
The light continued to grow
and she saw before her eyes
a person who she didn't know
her heart beat began to rise
The person told her who she was
a guardian angels thats true
she came to her because of things
she was currently thinking through
The angel took her by the hand
and said "come with me
I'll take you to the other side
Your worries will be free"
She was suddenly transported
to the place on the other side
she felt really safe and calm
she felt like she could glide
She then came to a place that she
could see for miles around
she started to calm herself
and just listen to the sound
she noticed that people were
doing everyday things
people were surrounded by loved ones
she saw the smiles they bring
The angels told her that once she'd passed
she would be safe and calm
she wouldn't have to worry
about losing her own charm
She took her by the hand
and led her back to the place
where she had entered this safe and loving world
then she vanished without a trace
She then realised that she was
back in her bedroom
the tears were streaming down her face
her heart was in full bloom
She went off to a serenful sleep
all nice and warm and curled
safe in the knowledge that when she'd passed over
she'd be in that other world
