LOST DREAMS

November 6, 2020

My precious dreams, buried

In the depth of slumber

My dulcet gross desires thinned 

In the eyes of my existence

My fruitful life, limited

To the present, its past never lived

 

Without dreams, I die

I live under deadly tears

Following the footsteps of my fellow mate

'till infinite, I have a path no more

I'm a slave of my petty fate 

 

In the deep swamps of my thoughts

I wandered

At every tick-tock 

Of the celeste clock

All overwhelms me 

All cramped in my busy mind

 

Few wise voices resonate in my head

As I dive

Sleeping in the gleam of darkness

I'm scared 

In the middle of my like

I'm a prey

 

I lost my dreams  

In the vastness 

Of mortal with hearts of stones 

I'm scared

That my offspring will have no life


The author's comments:

Without dreams, life is meaningless, vague, and boring. This piece is a letter to myself to be proud to have dreams and to keep fighting to accomplish them for the sake of my existence because without them I'm "a prey".
