Dream within a Dream - Visitor's Poem

by Tracey Ann Britton
(Huddersfield, England)

This is a poem I wrote after yet another spell in hospital with bipolar disorder.

silent dreaming
ever sleeping
watch your tears as
you are weeping

wonder 'why?
why is this so?'
'you need to feel
all that you know

experience the all
so you can grow.
if not on earth
where would you go?'

the highs & lows
the ups & downs
the ins & outs &
round & rounds.

circle complete we
start again
ending only
to begin.....
