Hi! I'm your hopes and dreams! I'm everything you want to work towards. Everything you dream of. The world you want to create with your own hands and be proud of what you have done. However, I'll never be what you get. I'm not what you think. For all you know, I'm a deadly monster waiting to devour you. Like a Venus fly trap, my beauty entices you, but like Icarus and the sun, you'll come too close and be ensnared in my clutches. But there is no way to tell. I could be a ambush predator waiting for you to "achieve" your goals and then you'll find out what they really mean or I could be a beautiful flower waiting to be smelled. You don't know and you'll never know unless you come after me. So chase me; run after the reality you want to see, the world you want to be in. Come see if it's a blessing or a curse. Maybe you'll go insane, curse. Maybe you'll become happy, blessing. Maybe you'll end up somewhere completely separated from your hopes and dreams, ??? Just remember that I'm your hopes and dreams, I'll always be with you and I'll never be with you, I'll get you through things and make you want to kill yourself. And I can destroy everything you love or create a world where woeful feelings evaporate into cotton candy and float away. Your dream, your curse, your blessing. Your hope.
