Not Unique
Dreamers dream of big things

Of great accomplishments

Of helping people

Of changing things

Big buildings

Great charities

Helping

Building

Contributing

Leading to stimulate

Contributing

A nice home filled

With some dreams

That dreamers want

Some dreamers are

Only fooling themselves

As time passes

They can be crushed

Dreamers can sometimes be

All they hoped for

If they dream

Of what they were

Meant to dream

Things are accomplished

By some dreamers

Others are herded

 They are funneled

Into an increasingly narrow

Confinement

Where

As they realize

They can no longer move

Suddenly a hammer strikes

Cleanly on the head

The dreams of the dreamer

Are brutally killed

Like cattle herded

To the slaughter

For the Dreamer

It is crushing to find out

That they are no one special

So the dreamer is

Broken

Is no more

Transformed by the realization

That their hope was

Falsely placed

Wrongly hoped

Fallen to knees that are

No longer able to keep them

Upright

The light in their eyes dim

Smiles are not as

Enthusiastic

Laughter From them

Is slowly becoming

A memory

A new reality is now

Theirs

A loud voice reverberates

From their humbled mind

To their broken hearts

And back again

What was unique is found

To be

Merely a breeze,

That passed by

To intrigue

And then was gone

The dreamer was not strong

The dreamer helped no-one

Least of all those

He loved

Sometimes instead of helping

The dreamer hurt the one

The ones

He has loved

Most

The dreamer is not the hero

He cannot help

Where his dreams went to

He ought to go

Go to a nebulous place

Dust from a house

Is swept outside

Into the air and blown

Away

Not to be known

Where it lands

Gone and forgotten

A breeze, dreams and self

Here today and

Gone tomorrow

A forgotten memory

Is what the dreamer

Dreamed

Along with

The Dreamer.

One reason the Dreamer

Remains

Because His dream

Must change

The dreamer must

Abandon His dreams

Change who He is

With dreams gone

He is empty

And that is a dangerous

Place to be

Empty and no goals

Is very frightening

Very dangerous

So very cold

Yet

All is not lost

There is one

Only one

Who revives the Dreamer

To the Dreamer

To be who He

Was meant to be

To dream not of

Personal goals

But to be led

By the One who has won

Who truly is

The person who can do

All

One who truly is

Everything the Dreamer

Always wanted to be

The One who whispered

To the Dreamer

As He slept

Who excited His heart

By creating whirlwinds of

Possibility

In his heart and mind

Being a dreamer not

Being A waste

Once the leading

Of the One

Is in its

Proper place

Within the Dreamer

New dreams

Of real value

A revived hope

Of a chance to be

A difference maker

As a tool used

By a Master Designer

And Carpenter

New dreams are in place

Burdens of success

No longer on

The Dreamer’s shoulder

Burdens belong to

The One

Success is the fruit

Of the One

The Dreamer listens

He obeys

A new spark was lit

A fire grows

This fire breaks

All laws

It does not consume

It builds and shapes

Only the One

Knows how

The Dreamer is

Different than

Ever before.

Because of the

One, the

Master Carpenter

Dream on Dreamer

Dream on

Dream the Dreams of

The One

And watch the Master work.

Cast aside goals

Rest from your work

That doesn’t come from the

Master

Relax

Be led

Be loved

And dream a good

Dream

Have many of them

Let the dead seed

Grow again

Let go Dreamer

Grab hold Dreamer

He, the One

Is in control.

Smile again

Laugh hard

Trust the One

Enjoy the ride

Given to you

By the One

And

Dream

Just as the One

Made you to do

Psalm 150:6 – Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.  Praise the Lord!

Micah 7:7 – But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.

Micah 6:8 – He has shown You, O man, what is good; And what does the Lord require of You but to do justly, to love mercy, And to walk humbly with Your God.
