I am no fool <br />You can ridicule <br />Unreal as it seams <br />Just because I dream <br />Please don't wake me up <br />Please don't you disrupt <br />So for goodness sake <br />Leave me till I wake <br /> <br />My tendency is for fantasy <br />Extend me this courtesy <br />A world inside my head <br />Fable books once I read <br />Words you left unsaid <br />Life dangles by a single thread <br />I choose to dream of you instead <br />From reality I have fled <br /> <br />I know it's not reality <br />But I still dream of prosperity <br />Life filled with disparity <br />Yes you say hilarity <br />Consider impartiality <br />You claim neutrality <br />It needs no formality <br />It's just my mentality <br /> <br />So I dream of you and me <br />Dreaming of how it could be <br />For I now it won't last <br />So for now I'm having a blast <br />For what it is or what it's not <br />To forget you I cannot <br />So I'm living in my dreams <br />For all is never as it seams<br /><br />Wilfred Mellers<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/because-i-dream/
