"How I've Come to View Myself"

It was last night I dreamt a dream, 
and in this dream I had a vision,
within this vision, I saw myself. 
Although this self I visioned of, 
appeared not as I see myself, 
through the eyes upon thy self, 
I knew from deep within myself, 
that it was I, I visioned of.  

I dreamed this dream until the morrow, 
the morrow of which, became today. 
It wasn't till the break of dawn, upon this day, 
that the dream I'd dreamt, had gone away. 

But in this dream that I had dreamt, 
before today from which it went, 
I had seen, much like I said, 
this altered version of myself. 
It was me, I know this so, 
a better me, I had not known.  

Within this vision, in my dream,
the one from which I'd dreamt last night, 
this very dream I'd seen myself, 
this version of, seen not before. 
It caused a change within myself, 
a change with how I view myself. 

So since this day, 
and by this day I mean today, 
the very day from which I woke, 
from this dream I'd dreamt before,
before the day became today. 
It is only now and forever more, 
that I see myself unlike before.

I just wanted to let you know, I thought this was very profound and I liked it.

I don't normally like poems, but I liked what you wrote, I think it's because I understand what you are trying to say.
