Untitled by Jasmine

My dreams are as lovey as pretty flowers in Spring

My dreams are as pretty as butterflies flying through the sky

My dreams are as soft as pillows

Untitled by Heyly

My dream of going to Mexico is like the possibilities of climbing a 1,000,000,000 mile high mountain.

The dream of falling on your bed is like falling into a volcano

My dreams are gloomy like happily hiking rain in the forest than with a bear that would totally eat you

Untitled by Rubi

My dreams are blank as an untouched piece of paper

My dreams can’t be catched like a loose butterfly flying

My dreams are black and white like an old show in the 50’s
