Dreams and Nonsense

 I wrote this poem as a contribution to a different blog. Ill feature it here since I have my own blog now.
Take time to read this and enjoy!!! =)

What happens when an effort
to pursue a dream is
postponed indefinitely?
Is it like you can get back on pursuing it
after finishing the "pressing" matters
you were doing?
Do you prioritize your dream
or does it prioritize you?

Are dreams fixed
or they morph and continually change?
Do they wait for you
or do they give up?

What happens when you
have completely forgotten
about your dream?
Does it wilt and die?
Or does it wait
for other people to grab them,
own them, and make them happen?

What happens when dreams
are not realized?
Do they shed a tear
or go on smiling?
Do they go to heaven too?
Or do they roam the lands
with regret and much needed hope?

What happens when
dreams are achieved?
Do they pop champagne?
Or they let people do it for them?


What if dreams are just dreams?
What if the life we're living
is nothing but a dream?
Would you still dare to be redundant
and still dream?

  1. dreams are dreams.if they do not come true, it will still linger in your mind, stay there as a dream and somehow, you will have the option to pursue it or not.if they come true, it would be more than champagne, it will make you feel you own the world.
