Dreaming of Other Times

This is a very old post from my blog; so old that it was originally hosted on LiveJournal.

Dreaming of other times…
Other worlds, perhaps…
My eyes open, my ears listening,
but my mind gone…
Journeying forever amongst the stars,
in other places and other times,
while my body stays unmoving.

What are these things we call dreams?
Our bodies are light and warm,
but our minds are outside, in the darkness and the snow…
Dreaming…
Only dreaming…

One with the World,
One with the Snow…
Forever and ever.

In other times,
In other worlds…

“Deep in this world we are one
Deep in this world we can be…

Watching the wings of time
Knowing that we’re alive
And free…“
