If a dream can become reality ,
Does that mean reality is just a dream?
This timeless place is built from dreams of the past
For even if time did exist
Would we see it the way man created it
Or would we know even more ?
We dream of a brighter better tomorrow
And with our imagination we make it pass
Building what we envision
Building upon yesterdays dreams
Don't tare down tomorrow for today
Don't forget the dreams of the past
My dream , your dream , their dreams
That is what will make us who we are
Unique and human
Our children will live our dreams
As we live the dreams of our parents
Our dreams are what makes us unique
Remember just one dream can change the world
That dream cam make us live, or kill us all.
For we each live in our own Dreamality.

" I am Like a dream that never was ,as I disappear into The abyss of reality I know its winds are carrying me far and wide , perhaps one day they will return me to this place , untill then dream well for dreams make us we are.”
remember we dream for a reason , we each have our reason for living ... never give up on your dreams , for if we do , we never become the best we can be ... our dreams make us unique , human , they also let us be alive , instead of surviving life ..so follow your dreams , live them to the fullest , no matter what others think or how crazy people tell you your ideas are.

Fantastic! I absolutely love it. It's beautiful and it flows so well. It fits perfectly with the quote. This is my favorite line: "That dream can make us live, or kill us all."

"Our children will live our dreams
As we live the dreams of our parents
Our dreams are what makes us Unique"
This was the best written piece of the whole thing ... although the entire write was BEAUTIFULLY DONE ... this verse/stanza stuck out to me the most ... it was so honest, so emotional, so brilliantly explained in your write ... I am so happy that you posted into my contest ... this is very wonderfully done ... good luck in the contest ...

Dreams Are Awesome
Hiya ShadowPoet.
This poem sounded familiar...Ah yes, it might be the quote that sounded familiar to me. It's a great effort into writting this, as I'm more than happy to be the first one to comment, if it's not too late.
I particuly liked these verse/stanza...
"This timeless place is built from dreams of the past
For even if time did exist"
"We dream of a brighter better tomorrow
And with our imagination we make it pass"
Comment: I always dream of a brighter day tommorow and wishing it would last through my life, but I know that it wouldn't happen. I like the way you put it like 'with our imagination we make it pass'. It captures something, I dunno, but it does.
"Our children will live our dreams
As we live the dreams of our parents
Our dreams are what makes us Unique"
I adored the few lines of the last stanza, because I think in some ways, in a majority of people, we do tend to live in the dreams of our parents, and that in some ways, dreams can make us unique, but it depends on the majority of people. However, I'm not sure if "one dream can change the world,as we live in our own Dreamality", but if it does it would be great.
Best of Luck in the Competition!
