Title: An impossible dream

I have a dream. It is a dream so impossible, so uselessly untrue that is is almost no use thinking about it. Yet it is what has held me up in times of pain, to lead on with life although I simply feel like falling asleep and never waking up again. I know it is impossible. BUt I still cling on to this dream like it is my child. I wil not let it go.
My dream is a zany one, and you will probably laugh, when you hear it, but it is to be able to fly. Ever since I was 5 years old and my heart was captured in the stories that were read to me, I wanted to be able to roam the sky, and examine the earth from every point of view. I want to be free, like a bird, and swim amongst the trees. I have never risked trying, though. I simply dream about it, and before I go to sleep, pretend that if I try hard enough, I will be able to. But I have discovered that I already can. In my heart, I can fly around the world. And I think that is why I wish so much that I could really fly. When I fly in my heart, I feel as if I am the wind. Nothing to stop me from doing whatever I like.
But of course this is impossible. It's an impossible dream. i know it. But I'll still dream on, and fly in my heart for the rest of my life.
