When we dream why do we see?

It certainly isn't with our physical eyes; they're closed, but we see people, places,things as plainly as with our physical eyes.
The same can be said of the rest of our senses in dreams, but I'm using sight as an example here.
So who's eyes see when you're dreaming?

Thoughts remind me of the bubbles in a bottle of carbonated water. Some rest on the bottom, the sides and others suspended in the middle.
All these thoughts waiting to reach the bottleneck of awareness at the top. Sadly only a few reach the top, while the others remain below the bottleneck of awareness.
What is the stuff of thoughts? That's another thought.

Bring on the night the darkness has more to say about you than the day ever will. You know that to be true don't you?

One Night

Through abstract time,
in shadow's womb,
an apparition in deep reverie.

Your head bowed down in a veil of hair,
my voice whispers,
"Why are you here?"

In silence you sit,
not a movement of breath,
nor a quiver of limbs.

As I close my eyes to sleep,
I leave you on my bed,
In the stillness of your being.
