FANTASIES
FANTASIES
It’s said that fantasies are not real
But will reflect how you may feel
One more memory each can steal
Causing emotion to well up inside
Even when you’d prefer they hide
It is what happens if you speculate
Even fantasies are deeply personal
A funeral mourner, hearse and all
When one will become emotional
Thinking of death but staying alive
It is a difficult balance to contrive
Relief when it can finally dissipate
Fantasies excite, but can also scare
Yet I have none as far as I’m aware
But if I had, then I would not share
Some secrets should never be told
But quite possible they may unfold
So I will just leave you to anticipate
