Somewhere at some time
it was spoken into existence,
that to astral project
is to walk through
someone else’s dreams.

Your soul escapes the quiet mind
to find another so deep in
an imaginary world, so they
would not have to be alone.

A movie projected by their thoughts;
but you watch through their eyes.
Everything they feel,
you feel in tandem.

This story that they live
while asleep, becomes an
escape amongst the many
of life’s harsh realities.

Because sometimes it is easier
to live in a masquerade
of someone else’s making
than in your own waking story.
