My head is swimming with visions
That'll never ever come true
There's nothing quite like daydreams
To submerse yourself into

I think about my future
and whether I'll change my mind
About my views on marriage or
Leaving childhood behind

I think of where I'll live,
and rarely what I'll do
I dream that I might travel
Around the world with you

See now, there's my problem
The "you" in that equation
Lately I've been faced with
A "you"-filled mind invasion

I wonder what you're doing
How 'bout if I was there?
I dream that you're thinking of me
Though you're not, I'm well aware.

I imagine what we'd talk about
and what we'd want to say
I try to think of how you'd move
And how, by me, you'd lay

But mostly I imagine
You can see my daydreams too
I know that it's impossible
I know that it's not true

But I still like to imagine
What it'd be like if you did...
Too bad it wouldn't matter
'Cause I'm just some stupid kid.

I should put these thoughts behind me
'Cause this annoyance is my cue
I guess I've got more growing up
Than I thought I had to do.

And though my mind is swimming
With these daydreams about you
It's time to put these thoughts aside
And bid these daydreams all adieu.
I'm getting angry with myself
Because I keep catching myself on a what-if tangent
As you may have noticed,
There's been a lot of dream poems lately
And they're not just trying to pump you up for the contest :)

I love my dreams and daydreams
But sometimes, they're really immature :iconheartbreakplz:

Daydreams are a poet's bread and butter--some of my best poems have been inspired by the emotional after-effects of 'what-iffing', myself.
