Dreams

By Aurora_Light

I dream a dream of love and life, of joy and happiness.
I dream a dream of hate and death, of sadness and regret.
Yet still I dream the dreams I dream,
I've found no reasons why to stop.
Life is full of both you see,
So why try and dream something that's not,
Something that hides the pain.
And so the dreams I dream are real,
As real as I allow,
For is not this life we lead,
Nothing but a single dream?

    It's ok to dream. It's what keeps hope alive. Don't stop dreaming. That's how they kill us, a day at a time, without us knowing.
