Dreams
like wisps of smoke
my dreams appear
and fade
like transparent water
which flows continuously
collecting into a vast
ocean of unrealised
dreams
stretching before me
like an endless road
on which weary feet
must travel until
freed from the world
of useless dreaming
the fulfilled dreams of some
cannot be the fulfilled dreams of all
like dreaming for an oasis
when the desert is your destiny
you have to come to accept
the beauty of the latter
most dreams are no more
than idle fancy
that become hateful thoughts
what are dreams anyway other than
wisps of smoke
that appear
and fade?

The imagery here gave me pause.
Destiny...hmmmmm.
I'd be curious to hear how you would respond now if someone asked you that final question. My answer: dreams can be a concrete visualization of potential. Good for providing hope and inspiration.
