A dream is like a mouse
A mystery to me
Always coming and going
Always looking for the big cheese
Loving the chase, the thrill of being caught
Loving the night, bringing hope and despair
To run at night, feeding their desires
To invade is their game, to hide and to be seeked
They start off small
They can grow, grow, and grow
There is never only just one, coming in all various shapes, colors, and sizes
There are those who oppose them, setting traps with hopes of death
Stopping them in their tracks
Stopping their foolish ways
Sometimes they are loved, kept safe from harm
Sometimes they are cherished, making inspirations and goals
Can be scary, full of torment and fear
Can be misleading, down the wrong path
From person to person
From dream to dream
Until the sun rises
Until that dream is no more
