Let's Dream a Dream Together

I am a dreamer, but I am honest with my dreams.
I don’t dream about changing the worlds,
Neither do I dream about bridging the gaps.
My dreams don’t concern the differences in colors,
Neither are they about the rising rate of crime.
I don’t dream about breaking the walls, neither
Are my dreams related to the extinction of animals,
Or global pollutions or protests against the authority.
I don’t dream about any of these things, cause I
Want to be happy in my life. And dreaming about
These things brings on pain and heartaches. Its
Like cancer, tries to eat me up from inside.
When I dream about these, I feel like waking up.
I feel like going out and do something, but I don’t
Know what do I want to do cause I feel very scared.
I feel very scared to wake up and lift my hands to break
The walls and barriers that holds us back in the
Darkness of ignorance, the darkness of slavery. And how
Can I do such a daunting task all alone, this makes me
Scared. So lets dream a dream together, then I wont
Be scared, then I wont feel the pain. Cause together
Everything is possible, together nothing is forbidden.

I liked as you write, I think that this article expresses much. everyone has their dreams and their fears...I think that the dreams and fears are an important part of the life of each person

Thank you all for your comments.

@Sameera : Dreams can never be otherwise, else they don't remain dreams. They become nightmares :)
