until I realized
that dreaming was
no longer necessary.
You see,
the life that I lead today
Is no longer clouded
by the hopes I once held
for tomorrow.
Turns out those dreams
were not what I was after
but rather the feeling
that I dreamed
the hopes might bring.
I found out that feelings
can arrive without a dream
to bring them to my door.
Those feelings
have been inside me
all along
but I didn’t see them
because I was
too busy dreaming.
