In the realm of dreams, where aspirations soar,There lies a desire, forever out of my door.A poem I shall weave, with metaphors untold,To capture the essence of what I can’t hold.

Like a distant star, gleaming in the night,I reach out my hand, but it’s just out of sight.The shimmering light, a beacon of hope,Yet it eludes my grasp, like a slippery slope.

Oh, elusive dream, you dance in the breeze,Teasing my heart with your whimsical tease.I chase your essence, through valleys and hills,But you remain distant, beyond my will.

You’re the melody that lingers in the air,A haunting tune that I can’t quite snare.I strive to capture your ethereal sound,But you slip through my fingers, never to be found.

Like a butterfly, delicate and free,You flutter away, beyond what I see.I yearn to touch your vibrant wings,But you soar higher, on intangible strings.

You’re the horizon, where the sun meets the sky,A place I can never truly occupy.I stretch my arms, longing to be near,But you remain distant, forever unclear.

Oh, out of reach, you’re a lesson to learn,A reminder that life’s bridges may sometimes burn.But in the pursuit, there’s growth to be found,As I navigate the boundaries that surround.

For in striving for what seems out of grasp,I discover resilience, built to last.Though you may elude me, I’ll continue to strive,For it’s in the chase that I truly come alive.

So, elusive dream, I’ll keep reaching for you,Though you may stay distant, I’ll remain true.For it’s in the pursuit, where my spirit will teach,That sometimes, the beauty lies in what’s out of reach.
