Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in my, and lead me in the way everlasting. Psalm 139:23-24.

It is something so grand
Imagine it, break apart
Your dreams fly backwards
Forward, through your day

Sleep means self growth now
Undoing, your life mess
The parables to decipher
Change, you see the answers

When you wake
Erasing, all the epiphanies
Those answers you lost
Resume, all your daily mess

My mom always told me that if I had something I couldn't decipher, my subconscious would translate it for me. But it seems like everything I learn in my dreams is lost when I wake.
