In the abyss of my mind I see
Two worlds colliding gracefully
A world of dreams and pastures new
A world of my life with dreams so few
Between the two is a crevice deep
It’s where I fall when I’m asleep
Which step to take I cannot see
As I stand on the edge of reality
I know the path that I must take
I will be right there when I awake
A dream world state is not for me
I’ll stay right here in reality

Your last two lines are poignant and telling. The rhyme and cadence are nicely constructed as well.
