 Chasing a Dream

Running headlong after the vision;
Unable to resist the powerful draw.
Closer and closer, I come very near;
Close enough to see the true reality.

The candle is bright, the flame attractive;
I dance the dance of submission all night.
The sun rises bringing the light of day;
What was hidden in the shadows is seen.

The illusion becomes unveiled before me;
Stark reality mocks my heart and my soul.
Stripped away is the veneer of beauty;
Chasing a dream, but it was only a mirage.
