Beyond Our Dreams
And Into the Reality of Daylight
True love’s perfect kiss —
a lifelong, never-changing embrace.
Calm childbirths with stress-free upbringings
Predictable and consistent lives,
yet full of life and never boring
In our dreams —
our most pleasant dreams
that we expect will become a reality.
But our real lives aren’t always so simple.
We are not meant to know our future,
but we are to watch it unfold.
We are to enjoy the pleasantries
that our sweet slumbers behold.
Maybe our pleasant dreams are memories
of past tranquilities —
reminders that there are moments of peace
amidst real life’s disparities.
Or maybe they are symbols of hope
for happy surprises and desires to come true
in due time and in their own way.
But with or without our dreams that come true,
with or without our fulfilled expectations,
we can find beauty in rare, happy moments.
