Dream

Aggravation and questions and general fuss,
'Where do you go when you're not here with us?'
A snapping of fingers and frustrated sighs,
A roll of the eyes with snide comments and lies.
Vision glaze over and sounds fade away,
I'll just leave you a minute, an hour, a day.
Favourite characters, actions unseen,
Sad that we're only together in dreams.
A twist of a pen and the flick of a page,
Now they're my actors, the world is my stage.
