Reason of glory

Imaginary objects, who said they don’t exist?
Here is the reason why I choose to contradict.
First and foremost, there is a dream.
It is sweet and delicious, like berries under drizzled cream.
However sweet, dreams are nonetheless nutritious.
They feed the soul and encourage the fictitious.

Colossal dreams become your wonders.
You may have had an imaginary friend when you were younger.
As the years of your life go by,
You may become a deity ruling the executive sky.
Is that not a dream?
Is that not something possible, although radical it may seem?

From a dream comes every idea, goal, or story.
Without them, could we possibly attempt reaching any glory?
Everyone believes in something, and that is best.
If our dreams vanished, then where would we go next??
