I dreamt of wealth
A hidden treasure
I went on a quest
To retrieve pleasure
I desired the chest
I reached its side
The dream changed
Like the world lied
I didn’t stop dreaming
I dreamt of power
The ruler of worlds
I commanded respect
Watched it unfold
I desired the best
To the zenith, I climbed
The dream changed
Like the world lied
I didn’t stop dreaming
I dreamt of travels
In many worlds afar
Doubling pleasures
Vanishing old scars
I dreamt of success
When failure was near
I dreamt of fair hope
When alluring was fear
I dreamt of perfection
The best of the best
I wanted no seconds
Only the top had zest
I dreamt of friendship
A guide that was true
I wanted a dear angel
The dream showed you
This dream didn’t die
It never blurred away
It must be a true one
I heard myself say
Like a wanderlust now
My mind did travel
Dreaming the desires
Watching them unravel
I didn’t stop dreaming
My desires they show
Some true and golden
Some fickle in its flow
A world contorts here
Like none other can see
In my dreams I wander
Being who I yearn to be
One Single Impression

Poetry & writing to me are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
Written like a true wanderer, Leo. I liked the third to last verse best, it had a good ending. The last one sums it all up very nicely…
I think am reading the longest poem here for first time since I started visiting your space :)wonderful 🙂
