why do dreams like to flaunt
bobbing around in your face
daring you to take a swipe
but you think you won’t strike
why do dreams like taunt
with sparkling diamonds and dust
begging to be taken into your hand
so you can travel to unseen lands
why do dreams make you cry
when you try to attain them
when you feel like there’s only so much
you can do to make everything just
why do dreams make you smile
hoping with every little fiber in yourself
that they will someday find their way
straight to you so you don’t stray
why can’t those dreams be true
all on their own without any help
so all the pain you go through in trying
won’t end up in failing but instead flying
