Dreams

I live in a fantasyland,

Covered by beaches and sand.

No troubles here,

Nothing to fear.

I am free to roam about,

Free to scream and shout.

I have my own castle and I am king,

I am royalty, I even have a ring.

This place is happy all around,

And not a bad thought can be found.

I hate to leave this place,

And have the real world to face.

I can not run away from it,

I can not throw a fit.

I can only look forward to when I close my eyes,

And go back to my happy, sunny skies.

Yo too eh? I'm a lonely dreamer of sorts. Reading poems of this nature always brings me back to the movie "Rudy". Rudy and his pal Pete are sitting around this table and Pete says "Do you know what day it is?" Rudy goes "No" Pete says "August 23rd." Rudy responds "Thats my birthday." (This is actually my b-day too).

Then they start talking about Rudy's dream to go to college at Notre Dam or however you spell it. Then Pete says the coolest thing "Dreams are what makes life tolerable." So true.
