68. Fearful Dreamer

...a poem about a dreamer, hesitating to follow the star. 

As soon as the stars are fading
So is the dreamer walking away
Not waiting for the miraculous stairway
For walking away is safer than falling from above

Silently, she asked for help
Secretly, she wanted catharsis
Smilingly, she said everything is okay
But nothing happened, she acted too well

Maybe it's easier to plan something 
Processing is what threatens the dreamer
The star that she wanted seems so far away
The more she progress, the more the star looks farther

Or maybe she knows what she wants
But as they said, what if it's not for her?
What if it's not worth it?
What if it's meant to be just a star, 
not something to be reached

There might be obstacles to reach temporary goals
Struggles to finish the goal that everyone wanted
But after that, what will be the next step?
What will happen to the big ambition she used to have?
