Dreaming when I’m wide awake
I let my spirit soar
Never knowing what’s at stake
When I open that door

Seeing things that don’t belong
Inside the waking world
But I float upon a song
And let my mind unfurl

I do not know if I’ll revive
From this deep fantasy
I only know I feel alive
With things I cannot see

So if you catch me in a daze
Or think I’m not all there
Know that just behind my gaze
My dreams float by on air

She also writes and publishes plenty of individual poems on her website, and her work has appeared in the Talon Literary Magazine, the Beautiful Poetry anthology by Silent Sparks Press, the #AmWriting anthology by the Wayne Foundation, and Life Blood: A Collection of Vampire Tales by Gary Hill.
