A Dream Within A Dream

A Dream Within A Dream I think this poem is a very good poem and I like it. It made me seem that it all happened to me and when I read the poem it made me feel like if it happened to me and I knew how it felt to lose something to. I think that the author was trying to tell us that he was in his days… which means he is going to pass away. At least that’s what I think. I noticed that he wants to show us what he is going through with his words. The I have it all.
