Dreams

We all have dreams that we hope will come true. But for many of us, those dreams never do. Oh, there are people, with talent enough, to beat the odds, no matter how tough. Then there are those with much luck to spare, who seem to find miracles almost everywhere. And others, still, who are blessed with more love than any of us could ever dream of. So what about us; the "unlucky ones"? What do we do when our work is all done, and nothing we do or say comes out right? Should we keep on trying, or give up the fight? My friends, I have not the answer to this; but I, too, have despaired and felt fear's dark kiss. And yet, these words, may help after all, and bring comfort and hope, no matter how small. I had once given up, on love, and yes, life; many times I have felt pain cold, and sharp as a knife. I couldn't go on, it was too much to bear; I felt like I had no reason to care. But alas, I have found dreams do not have to end when something goes wrong, or you've lost your best friend. You will see, if you wait, and hope, and pray, your dreams just might still come true someday. And if, by chance, they do not, take heart; thought you may feel your life has fallen apart. Letting go of the dreams that you hold very dear can open your heart for new dreams to appear. So when you feel lost, and nothing goes right, do not lose your faith or give up the fight. Keep hoping, keep wishing, keep sight of your dreams; life is not always as bad as it seems. Let your heart lead your mind, and you cannot go wrong; you may find you have had other dreams all along.
