Dear Dreamer
Dear Dreamer,
I know you have many dreams within you,
Stirring until you are about to explode,
Bursting up within you like a bubbling fountain.
I know you are wont to daydream
As others take for granted this world
As something callous and impersonal,
Yet you know there is something more – don’t you?
I know you are longing for a change
To occur within your own heart
Until all the world should mirror it;
Until all mankind should see such beauty as you see
And long for change within their own dreary hearts!
Dear Dreamer,
I see you awake in the midnight hour,
Pondering every meaning, every word, every image
That flashes through your brilliant mind.
I see you in the mundane day-to-day,
Seeking to reconcile the boredom in front of you
With the beauty breaking forth within you,
Believing you can build a better today – can’t you?
I see you pouring yourself out
Time and time again in the places no one sees;
Pursuing your passions with endless energy,
Trusting that if you refuse to give up
You may one day help them believe.
Dear Dreamer,
I feel you beating within my heart,
As if our dreams somehow connect us together
And make our hearts beat in synchronicity.
I feel you like a gentle river
Flowing through my veins, rushing and roaring
With turbulent volition that makes me tremble,
For you will change the world – won’t you?
I feel you creating new worlds within
That resonate to the very core of humanity,
Causing a chasm which can only be filled
By the wondrous dreams you know so well,
Since you know mankind was made for more!
Dear Dreamer,
I love you as a father loves his child,
Wanting every desire of your heart to come true,
And hoping to be part of fulfilling it for you.
I love you as a friend loves a friend,
Always seeking to join in your joyous celebration,
Uncaring for how crazy the world thinks we are,
For you have tasted and seen of a sweeter reality
That drips honey within the secret soul – haven’t you?
I love you as a lover loves her lover,
Conjoined with you in your sorrow and pain,
Unwilling to let go even in the fiercest storms
That seek to destroy you, because I know
How full of vibrant life and dreams you are!
Dear Dreamer,
I am you in your darkest hour,
Searching for love in all the wrong places
And hoping to be filled by empty fantasies.
I am you when all hell breaks loose
Upon the fulfillment of your dreams,
When it seems like every wish is lying
That says you are born for this – aren’t you?
I am you in your heart of hearts,
Whispering sweetly of who you truly are,
Pouring liquid love into your identity
Until you blossom like a wildflower,
Spreading heaven’s fragrance wherever you go…
