Dreams
October 17, 2018
My dreams of you
Did slowly creep
Into the world I knew
And as you stood there by my side
My days grew solemn and blue
Just as you darkened my silent nights
To reality you did too
For people tell you always
To make your dreams come true
But no one seems to remember
That nightmares are dreams too

I wrote this poem to symbolize that sometimes we fantasize or idealize about someone or something so much that we set our expectations astronomically high, so if it inevitably becomes reality, we get disappointed because it’s not as great as we dreamed.
