Dreams
The sweat of his brow as he strains over every word, meticulously;
Heroes, villains, adventure, and love;
Earthly emotions: pain, suffering, and despair.
Prose drip from his brain onto the page;
Rising from the paper come feeble attempts at this tool used to explain our condition;
Onto the world these struggling attempts are cast;
Sending out cries for purpose and hope for success.
Even the dream, what we desire most, is only as realistic as what danced in your head as you slept last night - both are so easily forgotten.
