Souls and HOpe
(poems go here) Dreams deferred,
Power is absurd
How crazy it must seem to chase a means
To find a route seldom travelled by peers
See, I’m a dreamer by nature, for dreams I am a feign
Very few can relate to my mind so many steer clear
Have you ever been put down for trying?
Crushed for the dreams you’re sharing?
Sue me for going after what I believe in instead of dying
And caring
About attention from the lost souls
It is something I don’t need.
See, following your dreams, is a means to an end
If writing clears my mind and purifies my soul
Who are you to judge me?
Now, I follow my dreams
By any means necessary
I have to prove to the children of the world that hard work and dedication brings about results
And even if you aren’t famous and rich you can make it to the top as long as you start
They’ll throw things at you, your wounds will be drenched in salt
But, why do I write?
It clears my mind and purifies my soul
It gives me hope to get set those goals of things not in site
Don’t live where the sun doesn’t shine in a hole
I write because I have hope and dreams, I can only assume your reasons are near or the same
