Poetic Thoughts

By day I spend my time on Earth By night I sail on the river of dreams Filled with visions from every hearth Joining the river like tiny streams So many dreams and ambitions So many regrets and fantasies Dreamt by people of various nations Stretching over the river as far as I can see Many discarded and broken dreams Lie on the opposite shore Begging to be among the streams And longing to be more Does Morpheus ever sail by this river And look upon the dreams? Or does he merely give a sneer And continue sailing upstream? The river is my lone solace For here, I’m the queen And as sure as dreams can build palaces I will always sail this dream

"Let them in and let them go 'cause they will swing to and fro From wonder to wisdom Making you feel special and dumb" We wish on stars which we never bother to look at again. Wish on an eyelash which we blow away. Wish on the first drop of rain which splashes away on our palm. Wishes made on a million different stones thrown into a million different wells never to be picked up again.  Words used on a wish make us smile for a second and give us anxiety for a week at the least.

We are forced to assume that we stand upon a cliff with just one path of floating rocks which would help us cross that never-ending pit of doom. The fear of the depth makes us close our eyes and now blind, we feel safe as we see no danger.  The life of a stranger seems so similar to that of a friend as this large ship is filled with people who think alike. A dare to dream bigger or think different and we are cast off into the sea. We never opened our eyes to see that the cast aways are living your dream.
