I'm Meeting People in my Dreams

  I’m meeting people in my dreams Waking life’s not what it seems People, places, things and me Knowing (not knowing?) what it means   In my dreams I think I’m free Have to remember just to be I must carry memory (into) Waking (sleeping?) dream to dream I know this life’s not what it seems So much more than eye it meets In limited body I’m here While infinite stars are crystal clear
