    Smile The Universe To Me

    what if we left all the puddles for the dreamers to dip
    electricity gliding on your fingertips
    take a sip of a glass half empty
    and who's left to tell you
    you are still dreaming?

    I left to take a breather on another planet
    pure divinity, in your palm, I hand it
    who has the audacity to remind you
    you are never free enough to imagine?

    buckle down in the earth with your helmet
    shoulder strapped with your weapon and your magic
    enemies fire as they see you smile
    wounded but it was all worthwhile

    this dream, means the universe to me
    if you focus, you can see it
    manifest within me
    this dream

    street corners thick with humanity
    folks crying from the center of their being
    who's going to tell you that this is where
    your life should and will be?

    the mountain's peak is is too sharp for human beings
    but if we put forth the faith and the feeling
    I'm sure we could climb up the rigid ice
    and laugh at the folks who wanted us to slide back down

    fear of drowning leaves you standing at the shore's edge
    watching for the tide to swallow itself and rest
    in the surface your reflection dances
    and asks you who are you
    to be so recklessly romantic

    this dream means the universe to me
    if you focus you can see it
    manifest within me
    and it's you, the dream
    facing me
    and you suddenly complete me.

    When people ask
    "who do you think you are?"
    I simply state I'm a woman who dines
    with the milky way stars
    and it's you sitting across from me
    Dream,
    and you suddenly amaze me.

    Great imagery. I'm wondering if you can work in subtle meanings. I especially like the drinking liquid from glass moment reflecting itself as if it were a dream. That and it might need some deep symbolism but I know that you did a great job writing this piece anyways. I think I suggested the obvious.
