Daydreams

All of us daydream but our daydreams may not always be positive. They may be a combination in our private life that may be happy or unhappy.

We daydream

During moments

We least expect

- – -

Take marathon runners

As they undertake

Their grueling task

Pleasant fantasies

May rush

Through their minds

- – -

These athletes

May shut out

Their great efforts

That put stress

On their bodies

They endure, relying

On their waking consciousness

- – -

They may visualize themselves

Having a warm bath

Once the race

Is completed

Followed by a sumptuous

Meal

With lots of cold water

And a glass of wine

- – -

Others may see

Themselves floating

Down the River Thames

Enjoying cool breeze

While listening

To the strings of soft music

And enjoying the moment

With a loved one

- – -

These subjective responses

Are happy

They look forward to

Vivid visual

And auditory imagery

In anticipation of the future

- – -

These highs

Are achievable

Without using

Alcohol or drugs

And are opposite

To those that experience

Fantasies of guilt

Image via Wikipedia

Anxiety, aggressive wishes

And failure
