Dreams

They say love makes the world go round, I say dreams keep it in perfect motion,

Dreams determine how far we reach into the universe or venture down the sea.

Those who have stood by their dreams have often succeeded or gotten wiser,

They have found joy and contentment for not being afraid to follow their passions.

Dreams will at times force us to make unpopular decisions that leave us lonely,

 Holding onto nothing but a flicker of hope that despite today`s rain and pain,

Tomorrow the sun will shine and everything will be fine and we will live our dream.

Dreams have mended and broken hearts; killed doubled minded men with no stand,

Dreams are preserved the strong-willed enough to pursue their dreams to the end.

They keep the world on its toes as they dictate the rhythm and pace of life,

Heroes, saints and legends are made of dreams as they lived and died their dreams.
