Favorite Dream


I am afraid of clowns

I am afraid of snakes

I am afraid that my wings and things will become poisoned

I am afraid that my limits aren’t the sky

I am even afraid of the dark

I am afraid of success

I am afraid of speaking up

I am afraid that my toes won’t grow 

I am afraid that my arm will break

I am even afraid of dragonflies

I want to see the unknown

I want to grow but just a centimeter

I want to go on a shopping spree

I even want to help those in trees

I want to change your view

I want to help those overseas

I want to scream

I want to succeed

And I want to be there

Most of all I want to be free
