Why Are Some Dreams So Difficult? Poem by Anita Atina

Why are some dreams so difficult?
Testing our patience, tenacity, faith
Taking us to the very limits of what we know
Or what we choose to disbelieve
Throwing up a forest of questions
While answers, slowly grow into our being

Why are some dreams so difficult?
Fluttering away further, just when they felt
So close to resolution
A dancing chimera of seductive lure
That our imagination projects
Image upon image of sheer delight!

Why are some dreams so difficult?
Their magnificence, so breathtaking
That we sometimes cower under the weight
Of expectation, and knowing in our heart of heart
This is what we were waiting for
The door that finally opens into our dreams
