For the love of birdsThree little birds pitch on my doorstep.
I keep them in a jar

I am only the lonely,

thoughts of thornsyou were sent to me--
but as blessing, or lesson?
only time will tell.

Wake-up callwhen you're drowning in an ocean of sad thoughts,
you don't trip out onto the beach:
sooner or later, the waves will sweep you off your feet
and you will be unprepared
when the waters close over your head.
instead, you take a deep breath
and say your prayers
and you dive in.
the quickest way to learn to swim
is to have no other choice.

Lesson learnedShe fell first, and scraped herself up on impact.
By the time you were ready to let to and trust that she would catch you,
she was no longer there.
She picked herself up, dusted herself off, and moved the fuck on,
because she's stronger than you.
And you were left holding the pieces when you hit the ground.

But what about people who can control their dreams? Then they could just make it a good dream or the greatest movie of all time

.. but then it is real!

That would be a really interesting story. The only thing I can think that might improve it would be if you had it from the perspective of a character, finding out they can't wake up. The whole show, don't tell thing, you know? But the idea itself is lovely. I think the "plot twist" makes it.
