Joni Havard Poet Free verse

Dream

embraced by smiles
but, swollowed by tears
i tried to stay strong but, the weight of the world has finally deafeted me
i have transformed my dreams into realistic actions
which is not my defenition of sucess by far
but it is the way the world has defined it for u and for me 
it has told us not to dream, but to focus
but why dont they just tell us to focus on our dreams?

Lynn Dolly September 28, 2012 at 4:45 AM I like this! What you are describing is a notion that many never get. Takes guts to make dreams come true. It's not the ONLY definition of success, but it's certainly one of them! There are a few spelling errors, but nothing crazy:) Keep it coming!
