I

To some people,
I am a dream.
To others,
A nightmare.
Yet, what is the difference?
A dream cannot be held,
But disappears as it is neared.
A nightmare comes to you,
And will not let you go.
It is strange, however,
That I usually am not the one,
To choose my form.

Evan, love how you refer yourself to a dream or nightmare. But, then again to be without form is even better... Awesome poem. SKAT
