Fog rolls in but my head is clear
wrapped around you in a folding chair
I know how to make the best things true
Oh it’s lucid dreaming time with you.
All that vitamin B taken faithfully
rituals and sleeping through reality
I’m still alone on that magic shore
waiting for your aura in the open door.
Don’t tell me two in a dream space is a lie
because impossible for me is just a lullaby
I will and you will and we will finally see
we wrested a moment from night’s eternity.
Dreaming about you is not enough
So I’m about to call sleep’s stubborn bluff.
Time’s running away but I won’t give in
Until we make that lucid dream begin.
Fog rolls in but my head is clear
wrapped around you in a folding chair
I know how to make the best things true
Oh it’s lucid dreaming time with you.

Lovely as always! And so relevant to both RL and SL. What is SL but a lucid dream, and a shared one at that… and in RL… well, impossible is just a lullabye! 🙂

You said it perfectly. Fog DOES roll in. I can attest to that. You are so good at that dream transition into wakefulness and turning it into something creative, Very Cohenesque of you by the way. Although I’ll take your lovely voice over his any day
