Dreams that don't let you sleep

I have heard people saying that dreams are those that do not let you sleep and not the ones that come in your sleep.

Now i have another variety of the so called "dreams that do not let you sleep". I believe every dream that is not realised can also be classified in this category. I wonder if people are just not bold enough to turn and look at those sleep less nights spend weeping to the pillow, cradling a shattered dream. 

what should we call those dreams? lost dreams? definitely not because if they are lost, then why are they still in our mind? So let's call them "haunted dreams". Since i don't believe in ghosts, the word haunted doesn't send a chill down my spine. :) 

So many times in our life, we will see our dreams being shattered right in front of our eyes. In most of the cases we are helpless or sometimes we are just not bold enough to hold on to them. But in either case, they will become "haunted dreams" later.

Some people just push these haunted dreams to the bin and move on with their life sooner or later. But some people tend to collect these dreams and keep them safe in a bag of memory. And the result? whatever success they achieve in their life, whatever little happiness that comes their way, all these will be hidden by this bag.

So it is very important for each one of us to get rid of these bags if we have them but the best way is to be carefull not to have them. Don't misunderstand me, i didn't mean not to dream, i just meant, "haunted dreams" should not be created.
