Dream Deferred Poem by Cheylee Miller

Dream Deferred

Rating: 4.5


What happens to a dream deferred?

Does it wither up
And die away?

Does it get lost
Like a shadow in the dead of night?

Does it go unanswered
Like so many prayers?

Does it thrive
In the back of your mind
Looking for a chance to escape?

Or does it stay
Just hidden behind
So many thoughts and worries
There in the back of your mind?

What happens to a dream deferred?
