Floating Dreams

I dream of floating through the sky, free from the ground beneath my feet. I dream of flying, of soaring above the clouds, and feeling the wind in my hair. But realistically, it"s just a dream. However, I can still imagine it in my mind, and it becomes a floating dream. It"s a dream that I can hold onto, that I can cling to when things get tough. It"s a dream that reminds me that there"s more to life than just the ground beneath my feet, and that there"s something beyond what I can see with my eyes. It"s a dream that reminds me to keep my eyes open, to see the beauty that"s all around me, and to appreciate every moment of my life. Even if it"s just a floating dream, it"s still a dream worth holding onto.
