A Dream ....Too Far

I have tucked your words

beneath my pillow

in hopes that my dreams

shall capture them and

bring peace to my

restless slumber

and maybe, just maybe

for some fleeting moments

before I wake, I shall truly

exist as you have written

me out to be and I may wake

with the proud memory of

my grand performance in the

starring role upon which you

have cast me

Wow! I love the flow of this poem; it reflects the intensity of the context. Personally, this speaks to me. It's as if you have captured feelings I have experienced.

Yes, expectations are a sensitive subject. Sometimes they daunt you. Sometimes, not been shown any expectations may question your self-worth. It needs to be balanced properly.
