Hopes and Dreams

DREAMS:
an inauthentic, false sense of security.
A brief interlude between the reality of the past and the reality of the future.
a pretense.

HOPE:
a temporary garment of relief.
self affirmation of detatchment from worry and fear.
a lie.

Ive been forced to hide both away.
both my hope and dreams
i have folded them into little squares
stacked them neatly at the back of my mind
in the pits of my heart
for they dont matter no more
they dont carve my future
they are little specks that obstruct
reality.

they force me to cling on
to my desires
to what I want
and in the process
push me to forget
that its not about
what i want
but what HE wants for me.

Declaration
Hopes and Dreams aside
'You take the lead. I trust You'
