Day Dreaming

What is a dream?

Other than an after thought

A safe haven from the turmoils of life 

A reflection of what could have been 

Or what could be 

Is it 

A goal, an ambition

The place your heart is always headed 

Even when reality tells you it’s a dead end 

Is it 

A fleeting moment 

Of ground breaking inspiration 

The kind that keeps the world beating 

And philosophers preaching 

Or is it simply a succession 

of involuntary emotions, ideas, 

and sensations 

locked away by our subconscious 

The leftovers of a mind at rest
