Hope lies dressed as night where mother of dreams draws heavy covers over tired eyes
Cuddled in the lap of darkness I hear sirens of sleep sing soft lullabies
Warmed in a blanket of mended memories, so familiar it calls me home
A soothing stroke of a loose thread unravels visions of dread, too far did I roam
Time in sheets of wax, melts and stretches, a year fits in a single breath
I walk streets of sepia sketches, nature's laws have no power as I resurrect from death
Shadows loom in a dark room places familiar that I have never been
In the smoke of a dream, a fog it would seem to awaken before it did begin

Here is a dreamlike world that is very familiar to me....
Thank you very much Lorez for your review and yes this is familiar in its unfamiliar but recognized state to me.
I feel how it captures the strange comfort of sleep, of time bending, memories mending, and dreams slipping away just as they begin. Thoroughly enjoyed, Soren 🕊️🙏
