Poetry: Dreams

Childhood Dreams

When I was a little girl
I though I could rule the world
What happened to my childhood dreams
They disappeared, or so it seems

Looking back through the years
It's hard to see when she disappeared
Do I have the courage to start again
Will there be joy or only pain

I feel like I am still that girl
Hidden in a shell like a treasured pearl
If I could open her heart again
I know our dreams would be the same

When we look back in years to come
Will she like what I've become
Or will I still be the little girl
Who wished that she had changed her world

    Waking up is a silvery blur
    Of things that are and things that were
    Things that have not

    by Katherine Drake

    Last night I had a dream
    and you were there with me
    so I held back my scream
    you said, come on, this is our destiny
