Dreams

I often dream and wonder why,
   The words and rhymes within my head.
   Should i be true and not deny?

   Those words need saving, so do i.
   A loneliness, my life must shed.
   I often dream and wonder why,

   It's hard to hold my head up high
   And speak of feelings, never said..
   Should i be true and not deny?

   This other world, or shrug and sigh.
   Why should i hide, or fear to tread?
   I often dream and wonder why.

   To live in hope, and never cry.
   Release my dreams, then look ahead.
   Should i be true and not deny?

   Rhymes now within my poet's eye,
   To share in verse, that can be read.
   I often dream and wonder why,
   Should i be true and not deny?
