Dreams to Fly

So many dreams are lost. So many are tucked away in our hearts. Some we see dashed in front of us. We leave them in the past like broken china or an old barbie doll. When we're little we dream such heroic dreams. We dream of saving the world, we dream of being just like our moms and dads, we dream to be the president and we dream to fly. But as we get older our dreams become smaller as the melancholy thought of the "real world" with responsibility hits us. We abandon flying and leave it for the birds. We let go the thought of our wings, we stop jumping off furniture, and ultimately we stop flying. Now we dream of being doctors or lawyers with lots of money, we dream of being famous and beautiful like the celebrities. We live our lives without the lovely feeling of flying. Why don't we want to fly anymore? Why don't we want to run at super speed? Why don't we want to stop time? Remember when you were young and you could remember a dream in the morning. They were such passionate dreams filled with color and supernatural abilities. Now we seldom remember a dream as we wake and when we do it's as dreary as the life we live in. Our dreams have diminished because out pathetic reasoning has told us we can't fly, that we can't walk on walls and we can't live under water. We lost our dreams to fly.
