Foolish Dreams

I have the most foolish Dreams In my dreams, I wake to sunlight pouring in streams. In my dreams, I am unburdened by fear, failure or disease. In my dreams, the sky is blue and the air is clean. In my dreams, I only see individuals never a multitude In my dreams, I bridge the gap between companionship and solitude In my dreams, I walk with my head held high There is no self doubt nor reason to hide tears I have cried In my dreams, the nights are longer There are no boogie men so I have peaceful slumbers In my dreams, I have friends and feel no heartache In my dreams, I never let go I give all it takes In my dreams, I'm not afraid to laugh or feel In my dreams, I'm surrounded by peace, it is truly surreal In my dreams, I am all that I am and that is enough In my dreams, I know what it is to love and be loved Every night I go to sleep and dream of things I won't ever admit I seek And every morn I rise to a wet pillow and tearstained cheeks Truly I have the most foolish Dreams My mind is endlessly breaking my heart making me wish for the wrong things

I like your Poem. I would have done some things different, but the Poem does well communicate frustration and futility.
