She closed her eyes
Drifting off to sleep
And she began a journey
Meeting fire breathing dragons
Riding majestic unicorns
Dancing at the ball
Traveling through the woods
Finding a missing prince
But it was all just
An epic dream
And she awoke
To the sound of her mother
Shouting to wake up
“There are chores to be done!”
Slowly her smile
Turns into a frown
And the true nightmares
Begin all over again

Aww, poor girl. Dreams were her escape from reality.
Yes, they were.

How dare life interrupt our dreams?
Well, there’s always the possibility of a daydream or two to temper reality!
Let’s hope!
