Dream's Return

April 28, 2014

Everyone all around

Always asks what I want to be

The question seems so simple

But the answer's hard for me

I used to know the answer

What my life would be about

But past dreams slip away

And all I did was pout

Since then I have been searching

To find the passion, lost

In my heart I hid the truth

For I was worried about the cost

And then I was alone

Without any support

How could I pursue dreams

When I'm stuck holding the fort?

Time continued on

Trudging through eternity

I grew tired of not proceeding

Then courage took over me

I shouldn't have to worry

I should respect my long lost dream

And pursue it til I get it

Far through the darkness, there's a gleam

School will take twelve years

And I'll have massive debt

But that's not going to stop me

Not before my dream is met

I'm going to be a doctor

Helping people's what I want

When I'm making people better

There's no way I can be gaunt

There's many that will help me

But of course, there's also you

I hope this sappy poem

Will help my dream come true
