Tarnished Dreams
It's just a simple dream
hazed by brilliant sunlight
tarnished by my wayward schemes,
hidden in the dusty cobwebs that form
in the shade of procrastination
where time waits for no one;
one day, I'll take them out again
clinging to their easily forgotten efforts
to polish and reflect in a brighter light
the wonder of what could have been
had they been achieved.
