Poetry Session

The Acquisition of Dreams

Dreams put on hold
Left untold and unfed
Are for the dead

One must continue
To nurture and pursue
Otherwise you'll be empty and confused

Dreams are feasible
Don't allow yourself to become feeble
Or mingle
With society's path
They will feel your wrath

As you uncover the essence of your being
Your relentless daydreams unbecoming
If it isn't tired or tried then you will survive
You shall not conform to somebody's definition
Of perfection

Dreams are seeking your truth
Persevering through all struggles of our youth
Looking back to the lovely days of pitter patter
Even if yesterday was bitter
You're an entirely new person altogether

Believe that it can be achieved as long as you perceive
And you make it clear through your actions
And liaisons
With your mind, body, and soul
No one else has the right to control

Dreams allow you to be the driver
And the passenger

Of an all-inclusive and exclusive club
One that omits anyone from deferring
Your dreams....
