That Day

I'm waiting for that day
Where I can leave the burden of my hope
and live like a floating paper boat
That never complains about the unreached destinations
Unexpected twists and turns, and hard realities they face
But it seems difficult to me to throw away my hopes 
As it made me what I am
At the same time I can't carry the heaviness of it anymore 
As it outgrown me so hugely 
Dilemma rules me from hair to toe
Even if all these are around 
I still want me to get at ease without being futuristic
