Dream Therapy


Patient #: Mr./Mrs. Wants-To-Recover

ID #:  02012544...No longer wishes to suffer

Diagnosis: Part of me torn asunder due to one silly little blunder

 

Physical Therapist: Nathan D. Optimist

Qualifications: Positive human relations

Commitment: To be a source of inspiration for those who need motivation while experiencing physical deprivation

Reality:

It's hard to live your dreams when money's a factuality

Harsh black and bitter like frostbitten winter

Until you realize where the truth really lies

For what truly fuels my life is burning desire

Desire:

To be able to teach, whether young or retired

To help those in need, the ones who require

A few helping hands, to help them acquire

What previously had been lost, an old part rewired
