Defered Dreams

What happens to dreams that are defered?

Dusty dreams never put into word

Drying like rasins in the sun

Festering like sores that run

Stinking like rotten meat

Crusting over like an old sugery sweet.

A dream set aside because the opportunity was not there

Set aside because life isn't fair

Not acted upon because there was no hope

Because there was so much that we couldn't cope

Do dreams that are deferd explode?

Do they sag like a heavy load?

Or do they drift away on the breeze?

Vanishing into nothingness because we didn't believe.
