Dreams

[Yoshifrog]

A quick poem I wrote about how desperate my daydreams make me, and how I sometimes beg that they'd come true- until a feirce nightmare reminds me of consequences that would come of these wishes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

My eyes do view the world in shadows
They see through tinted glass
They see visions that they wish were real
And some they wish would pass

Their perspective on the world is broken
Cracked just like their heart
They cannot hear the words they’ve spoken
So they keep apart

Dreams they say are just a figment
Never really there
Nightmares give my skin a pigment
That gives ghosts a scare

I beg that all my dreams are real
And then I curse their fate
Some are filled with fragile wishes
Others filled with hate

I sometimes wish with all my heart
That they could just be here
That all my wait and patient wishing
Would chase away my fear

But yet I stand alone in fright
Stuck beneath the dark of night
My breath is cold and I don’t care
I'm dreaming up a heart to tear
