The world is such a tacky gray
That’s why it's the realm of dreams where I choose to stay
Imagination is the scariest, but most powerful thing
It can create terrifying nightmares or spectacular futures
The most incredible thing though, is that it’s up to you
The things you imagine are based off the dreams you want to construe
Ambition flares because you have something to strive for
It’s a catalyst for you to become who you really want to be
So yes, I’d rather keep dreaming
Because in my head there's a beacon of hope always gleaming
However, the dreams don’t have to just be in your mind
When the dream ends, the journey to make it a reality can finally begin

Very visual like a dream. What a nice concept, on my second reading it got deeper. It's your choice of words that let's this flow naturally. Keep it up!

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it! The different rhyming scheme isn't what I'm used to, but I wanted to try something different.
