A Dream Unrealised

Ever had a dream you longed to breathe life into it and embrace its actual form? Yet some things are just never meant to be.

Think about it for a moment, how many dreams have you dashed simply because you failed to allow yourself to pursue it (whatever the consequences). In my case, it is something I long for, yet it is I that steadfastly constrain myself. A prisoner, yet simultaneously playing the role of a prison warden.

Yet all I have is
Hope - the belief of a better tomorrow, rational or otherwise.

There could be nothing worse than the lost of hope.
