Dreams
My dreams are seen beyond the screen
Open n Closed they shine they gleam
Surpassing words found in the dictionary
Like a new language silenced in pictionary
They are vast and wide
Reaching valleys high and Low
Passed the streets in which I have grown
Bigger then the truth of my own children Born
For when they became
Myself I mourned
Never did I die
Never did I live
Until I realized they won't always be kids
Now that I can breathe
Gasping tears in my eyes
I teach them they matter and this why
You are You
I am Me
Never live for others
You'd be loosing that part called Me
Not saying your not important
You know my heart "Please believe!"
But I lost a part That part called Me
Where I wrote thoughts
They began erasing
All the things that hurt
Reinventing my scenery
Never kept my notebooks
Simply memories
Of a hurtful pass I cleansed through writing
Now I am surfaced with words to bleed
Instead of my wrist in my early teens
Everything happens for a reason
I was not meant to have
Unlike you my Children
The past is the past
No longer being numb
Freed to chose the right one
I see all that is changing
In chaos fearing none
Channeling strength in new pages of life
Looking further then common and simple minds
In words I have a dream
Open and Closed they Shine they Gleam
Guiding my way Poetically
