Endless Dreams
Fight and never stop chasing your dreams.
Nobody has to tell you to stop chasing them
If you want them badly. Your body screams
At you to stop, but if your lungs are not numb
Enough then you have not done enough to go
What you are after. Nothing should ever stem
From your fear and this time should not grow
Or be in your way of dreams with no set limit.
They should be giving you purpose. You know
Measures of time like every hour and minute
In a day should not block us from our drive
We are meant to pursue. That one way ticket
That can lead us anywhere. You have to dive
In headfirst. Be bold and be fearless, but do
Not wait for time to tell you how to be alive
Because there is a contrast between what you
Want to do versus what pays the bills or to fit
Into society’s one box. It is like having blue
Skies versus letting all of the darkness flit
Or letting it always hang over your head.
In five years from now will you regret it?
All of the dreams that got you out of bed,
In the morning, but decided not to follow
All because you whispered, pouted and said
No to them. The one word that will hollow
You, leaving you empty and dead because
Yes would have been easier to swallow.
