A Dream

As gentle as a whisper
A glimpse into tomorrow
The delicate meaning becoming crisper
Either met with joy or sorrow

A majestic story
Of vivid colours and beauty
But behind the glory
A fulfilling duty

The key to your heart's desire
The lock on your true feelings
The ember of your life's fire
Courage needed for revealing

Sleep provides the occasional strife
Brought by the dimming of the light beam
The curiosity echoing through life
A dream
