Today I bury a dream

Today I bury a dream.

A dream that was forged on the fringe of adolescence, when the world was a happier place. A dream that was filled with idealism, hope, aspiration, ambition, blissful ignorance, innocence, and love. Lots of love.

A dream that I now know is incapable of being fulfilled. A lost dream. A dream that was a part of me for so long that it is almost as if I’m saying goodbye to an endearing and familiar friend. A dream that was entrenched in my heart for so long that I almost cannot accept that it remains unfulfilled.

And now it will be a dream that will forever remind me of my failings because it never came true. Because I did not make it come true. The dream has died.

Today I bury a dream. It used to be my dream. And now it’s gone forever.
