When reality bites
it inflects hurt and pain,
and we look for a place
to simply get away.
Fueling fantasies
tightly tethered to love,
romantic dreams offer
a secret place to play.
A sanctuary for
fragile fledgling feelings,
dreams allow passion and
magic to coexist.
When shooting for the stars
launch your wishes with hope,
for even a little
can take you a long way.
Life is much too short to
waste worrying about
unfulfilled promises,
or tales of betrayal.
(Blank Verse)
