Dreams.

Dreams are the things we hope for 

we wish for

we dare to believe that they will come true

even when all of our being knows it different.

we wish and hope and wish again

dreams are lies holding the soul to things we wish we could grasp

they will tear you down before the world will

they slip and struggle until they bury themselves deep into your skin

stop! stop!

stop making me cry every night and writhe in my bed 

because I know my family will be dissapointed.

stop making me hope for things that aren't there.

I wish..no stop!

I can't take it anymore.

I'm such a fool.

Why do I let myself walk along this road of glass

bath  in the salty tears of hope.

so close every day to try and reach dreams

no goals

goals are not dreams

Goals are possible and strong holding

dreams are lies that will soon fade into the dark of your mind

years and years of dreaming only leading

to disappointment and death
