what happens to a dream deferred <br />does it dry up upon waking <br />like a stream in the desert <br />or does it fester and decay like meat <br />the hunter forgot in the forest <br /> <br />does it stink like rotten relationship <br />making you wander lonely as a cloud <br />and lost to a vale of tears <br />or it will crust and sugar like ice on a cake <br />with you dancing in the breeze <br /> <br />ours won’t sag <br />like a heavy load of granite <br />maybe it will explode when next we meet <br />filling your heart with pleasure <br />like a dance with the daffodils<br /><br />Padmore Enyonam Agbemabiese<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/tell-me-13/
