I live in a Dream
I am chasing a dream
A dream that can never be mine
I am attracted to a fantasy
That makes my days bright and nights shine
I don’t want to let go my dream
And open my eyes to reality
The present smothers me
Treats my gossamer thoughts with cruelty
I hold very close to heart, my dream
That coddles me and nourishes me
Candles my sepia heart
And takes me away from ignominy
I am absorbed in my dream
That sustains in me my passion
So deadly is the real life
I hug my dream again, snubbing caution
