Sonnet 30, Daydreams Come And Go Poem by Peter S. Quinn

Daydreams come and go and hide forever,
Into the world where none has come too close;
And back again reaches us then never,
Like everything that just to oblivion goes.
What long ago you once carried around,
Deep in your heart, for some wishful thinking;
Has now left and is nowhere to be found,
Like the light that in the past was blinking.
Indeed each step we walk returns to dust,
Eternal is no minute here or way;
Everything here then must all end or rust,
And each what lies hidden must too obey.
We will carry dreams and they lay to rest,
With some, we will try what we can do best.
