The Lost Dream

The magic in your head when your eyes are closed

we are fools to believe
that our dreams will be anything
more than they are,
fleeting moments conceived.

we can close our eyes
and try our hardest
to set the scene,
in a realm of our dreams,
an unreal fantasy.

an ephemeral moment
concocted in our heads,
a touch of magic frozen.

but it is what it is
nothing more, nothing less,
where it must stay
untainted by reality,
a fantastical success.
