Please Don’t Kill The Dream

 
I have lost count of the number of dreams
That have be crushed and I have assassinated
Dreams crushed by others teaches you to
Commit suicide on your own dreams
It takes your hope and what you hope for
And puts in the garbage disposal with the
Rest of the shite

It firmly starts in childhood
Dreams shattered by violence
Hopes turned to night terrors
Prayers always unanswered
Despite the pleading
No rescue comes
No salvation available
Guardian angels are demons
And it never ever stops
Not even in adulthood
The die is already cast
In blood and tears
It disables you emotions
You write poems saying
Fuck hope
Fuck peace
Fuck charity
Fuck God
People are cunts
Love is a myth
All men are bastards
Knowing in my head
That I will not be loved
Nobody will ever really care
I do not deserve it
I am fatally broken
I am terminally sad
The razor cuts my skin
But I pull back nervously

There is a shaft of light,
A glimmer of one bright ray
Do I give life one more go?
Is it too much of a risk
Is it worth the predicted pain?
And just like everything else
Will it be cruelly taken away?
The light shines much brighter
And I find myself
Daring to hope
Daring to dream
But so very scared
Scared that you will
Kill the dream
So very scared
I have seen enough of death
