Hopes for something I shall never reach
A dream beyond what I can sleep
Happiness and satisfaction
Neither are present
Dreaming for perfection
Something for what I want
Something I could enjoy
Pride to take
Sadly too far away
Only here to wait
Hopefully soon to awake
A wonderland in my mind
Restricted to what I have
Wishes for reflection
A beautiful soul
So close to grasp
But out of reach
My hopes and dreams
Saddened truth
I know it will never
Imagination is all
Key to caged gray
Never will I hold the held
Away from me and out of sight
Just a glimpse
Is nothing for what I wish
