I may not have so many dreams as I once had,
Some have been taken
Some have collapsed.
Some blew away
Some would not stay
Some started well, then turned bad.

But
There's a precious few that I can never lose, they go too deep,
I'd still have them till my very end, even if I forget how to sleep.

I dream that I would never cause another harm
I dream that I will always try my best
I dream that there will always be another dream,
Even if it hasn't arrived yet.

I've lost most the dreams I dreamt for me,
I know that to be true
But how can I weep, when I still keep,
All the dreams I dreamt for you.

Thank you for commenting Tom. Perhaps it will grow into a new poem, even. Which makes me think... of a new best wish for poets... May you find many beautiful poems, in yourself and elsewhere.

And Hooray!!!!

I really enjoyed this Aviva. I especially liked your line about how some dreams "would not stay". For some reason it really stood out to me and caught my imagination. Thanks for sharing.
