Poem
When we are born into this world we never think that our dreams can be shattered and torn apart We never think that any one of our hopes can be crushed because we hold them so dear in our hearts We go on thinking that we can achieve anything that pops up in our little head Then we grown up into the bitter reality of instead of our dreams being something that we can look forward to its now become something we dread As a child we would have never be able to fathom that our lives could end up so messed up the way they did We set out goals high and searched for those stars not knowing that they were out of reach because we were kids Now as we sit here all grown we know better then to reach for the stars and have our expectations never met We learned that the future is something that we can look forward to but also just anther thing that we will soon regret Where can the line be drawn when its comes down to our dreams being shattered by someone else’s tongue Where can be go when we only see failure and the emptiness from staring at this loaded gun I used to say that we could live our lives in a search to always find the next thing But in the end of that search there’s nothing better to do then to start over and begin As a child I thought that when I grew up that I would have all my dreams come true Too bad we could keep that mind set of always believing even though were bound by all that we cant do I look to my dreams that I Had set and I see how they crumbled in my hand I see how I risked them all for just a messily touch from a man I wish I could have seen things as someone would through a Childs eyes Where there’s no mistakes and people tell you the truth instead of feeding you lies I guess growing up in this hell filled world is what makes you learn about the wrong turns your life takes It all depends on what we do from there and how keep rebuilding when our body sometimes breaks One thing that I learned and that I will never forget even when I am far gone and there’s only my words to pass on That life is something that we cant take for granted and that even though I thought I was so right I now see through my blindness that I was wrong
