Dream On

Page after page of pure perfection
Dreams coming true
At the turn of every page.
The guy always gets
The girl of his dreams,
And the girl always gets
Mr. Perfect.
Pure imagination,
Manipulation at its best.
My story’s been told
A hundred times,
Yet nothing can touch
This novel my heart has written
A million times over.
Unease fills my chest
As you start to read.
Our dreams are so different,
Yet they somehow coincide.
You often ask,
Why can’t my life,
Be more like those books,
When the answer is so clear
They are but fantasy,
Someone else's fiction.
Reality is filled with
Wrong choices,
Heartache,
Despair,
All the while knowing
All the love and joy,
That fantasy only focus on.
All my life’s lessons,
Come from living,
From experience,
From dreaming,
And striving
To make my hopes and dreams
Become a reality,
Something a child's imagination
Could not think up.
Dreams becoming reality,
Far more than a story can create.

Galaxies Collide

The sun descends
After the utmost
Of perfection. 
Beauty dripping down
The fabrics of the sky. 
Failures erased
As mistakes are dried. 
The stars sing
Their quiet melody
As you and I dance
In the twilight. 
The moon watches quietly
As a perfect night is made. 
There she stands
In all her wonder,
Imaginations are silenced
For they cannot compare. 
This world is our dancefloor,
As we move
With boundless grace. 
Take my hand,
The day will never end,
As you are in my arms.
