KEEP ON DREAMING - Poem

Hey, It's Nil here.

In this blog post I would like to share a poem which I wrote not long ago.

It's about several things, but perhaps the main one is that we go on despite troubles and illusions, and that thanks to that we are able to overcome them.

The mood of the poem is kind of sad though.

Anyhow, here it is. Hope you enjoy it.

Thank you for your time and attention,
Nil

KEEP ON DREAMING

We barely know where
we are on the map,
we still don't know where
it is we're heading,
we only know that
we keep on going.
The past swallowed our last step
and the fog shrouds our next one,
that we are walking
is our only certainty,
and when we don't know why
we feel like stopping.
It's too bad that
it was just a dream,
it's too bad
​that we had not time
to walk alongside each-other,
for we thought
the road would be long
and that the horizon would never come.
With each step we
can choose to drag our burdens
and if we listen to them
walk aimlessly we will.
But then why do I feel like melting?
And still I know I must go on.
You're not here to hold my hand anymore
I guess the steps are indeed mine to take.
And I don't know where I'm heading
or if there's a road for me to walk at all.
Hey, don't mind me, I'm just saying
we'll walk until the sun sets
on that endless horizon
and until then we'll just keep on dreaming.
