Dreamers
July 7, 2015
They open thier eyes,
But they still see
Exactly what they saw
A few moments before
The sun rose above the horizon
And the alarm blared in their ears
Shooting them awake
From their perfect paradise.
But,
They still see it all.
Every piece of the image
Sets in their minds as they realize,
You can't dream of a perfect world
When the world that surrounds you
Is already perfect,
In the eyes
Of the Dreamers.

I wrote this poem while thinking about how when someone has a dream, they usually dream about what they want their world to be like or how their dream life would be differewnt from the life they have, but I feel like if everyone just stopped and looked around for a moment, they'd realize how wonderful life really is, even if it isn't exactly how you would dream it to be.
