There is a hazy border

Between the lands

Of sleep and wake.

Drifting about,

It's easy to become lost.

Mysterious

Thoughts

Invade.

Strange

Half-formed

Memories

Seep through,

Spiraling

Into my mind.

In 5th grade, I wrote this poem. Thank you, Mrs. Fairchild; you are why I am a poet today.
