Poem
Nothing comes to a sleeper but a dream I feel asleep Not once but twice Sometimes I feel I slept on my life I always knew I was great But the world didn't see it Because they would hate Instead of congratulate Couldn't tell the real from the fake People change Only thing that don't change is my name It remains the same it holds power I get better by myself every hour I wake up with such a beam Nothing ever comes to a sleeper but a dream Nothing comes to a sleeper But a dream Don't let anyone tell you anything That will not allow you to grow Don't get slept on yourself anymore Stop sleeping Turn your dreams into a reality Stop dreaming About where you could be Or where you should be Keep racing With your dreams keep facing Stop giving Limitations Limitations to society Who breaks us up Like a variety A variety of the great Who they never really appreciate But we create Where we were destined to be And take it With our problems we face it With our dreams chase it Don't sleep Too much sleeping will make you weak So don't rest until you reach the top And when you reach it Don't you ever stop Nothing comes to a sleeper But a dream Don't let anyone tell you anything That will not allow you to grow Don't get slept on yourself anymore (Repeat until the chorus fades ) Written by Concetta Hardnett 07/31/2022
