Dreams

This was another writing exercise from poetry class awhile back. -"Villanelle" format. We had to follow a specific line, rhyme, and alternating repeating verse pattern. Fun to stretch in a new way! -Some of the wording that had to rhyme in a "Vilanelle" felt a bit cheesy, but all for the sake of the exercise, haha. ---(My favorite feedback from this poem: "Wow, that made me not hung over for a second...")

Falling into dreams tonight
I drift into other worlds
Laughing as my heart takes flight

Swaying past senses and sight
Dancing through foreign galaxies
Falling into dreams tonight

Unknowing is peace, alright
Swirling with new planets
Laughing as my heart takes flight

Stars become my friends and light
Clouds release their shape align
Falling into dreams tonight

Journey to the other side
Every step a mystery
Laughing as my heart takes flight

We sleep in perfect harmony
Living life in another reality
Falling into dreams tonight
Laughing as my heart takes flight.
