Unforgotten


I have dreams,

I have ambitions.

I don’t have motivation,

Or a way to do what

I love without serious effort

Just to start. Although, I

Never forget about my

Dreams, I just never start

What I have to finish and

It kills me, but I never do

Anything. I hear the

Definition of insanity is

Doing the same thing over

And over again, expecting

Something different to happen.

If that is true, than I am

Insane. I can feel it

In the way that I sit down to

Work on my dreams and it

Takes an hour for me to do

My minimum work requirement.

I do that over and over and

Over and over, and always tell

Myself, “This time…” I

Think I may be insane, but

I can deal with any kind of

Mental disorder because

Even if I’m only getting small

Amounts of  work done, at

Least I’m working towards what

I want. So insanity is only a

Small price to pay compared to

What I’ll feel when I achieve

My dreams. I am insane.
