Expectations


I wish I could create something great

But solidity is not my goal

What we expect and what we achieve are two completely different things

So don’t be caught up in what you want to be what you don’t have

 

Dreams can be achieved

But dreams can also just be dreams

Some sense comes when they appear real

But disappear once you realize that your expectations were not meant for you

 

Maybe it’s because the truth I hoped to find wasn’t there

I have many more poems than this, but I only put up the ones I think really mean something. I'm not putting up words I tried to throw together, but things I want people to read because I want someone to know how I think. I like to write about Life, Time, Love, Nature, The World, Emotions. Every poem I've written is because of what I was feeling at the time. Nothing is just thrown together or has been stifled over for any large amount of time.
