Dreams


A DREAMers dream that of no other 

just whispers echoing through cold stone walls 

yet louder than thunder 

DREAMers, dream on those beautiful dreams

change the world, make it turn

create a beautiful world, far better than today

for today cannot be better than an unknown tommorow

paint that path for us none believers

show us what true power is 

DREAMers give us your dreams 

for you are the shepard to us lambs

leading us to true freedom 

DREAMers what glorious dreams you have

fight the good fight and let your dreams be heard

break those stone walls down

let those whispers turn to cries  

let those cries shake the world turning doubt to crumble

and prepare us all for that promising unknown tommorow

trinket1993

Ever since I was little I have worked hard for a future. I was ill graced with poor parenting but learned from, rather than repeated, those poor mannerisms. At the age of sixteen I worked full time to support my younger sisters and myself, while going to school. This included: paying rent, electricity, water, food etc.. My grandfather, who was more intellectually and responsibly stable, taught me the refines of good education and it's rewards. I, being some what more refined than my immediate heritage, learned from his long monotonous lectures and suffered through school and long hours of labor to accomplish what I have done today. I have experienced far more than a person of my age should have to and because of that I have learned a great deal more than most. I pull through education and working long hours to reach a time in life where I will be satisfied in my accomplishments and have reached my humble goals of having a stable career and home that will benefit others as well as myself.
