They haunt you,
They inspire you;
They make you travel far far away,
But they are not true.
They make you wonder,
What is really around you;
They leave you almost speechless,
But they do not define you.
They are not spoken in words,
But play like a movie centered around you;
They seem real when you're in one,
But they do not control you.
People say dreams help us escape to a place
Different than what surrounds you;
It seems almost like an awaited vacation,
But it does not transform you.
Dreams are complex to explain,
And simple to have;
They come when we sleep,
But we can't choose which one to have.
They are unpredictable and changing,
Sweet to begin with then turn into nightmares:
Its like you start with dreaming of teddys,
And then end up chased by grizzly bears!
They can be sweet and peaceful,
And even bizzare and surreal;
The trick to enjoy the constant surprise,
Is to keep in sight what is real.
*Dreams are perceptions,
Could be illusions or deceptions too;
But don't stop dreaming yet,
'Cause someday they could come true.
Dreams are the castles we build with thoughts, they give us our own kingdoms...
