Holding On To Dreams

Hard to believe But I was young Just like you Once I had my whole life in front of me And I thought dreams just happened I thought it would always be easy I really believed That life would turn out great Wasted years, useless heartaches But now I know Life doesn’t just “turn out” Dreams don’t just “happen” If you don’t hold on If you don’t believe One and one Your dreams slip through your fingers Until life seems hardly worth living Yes I was young once Just like you and if I had it all to live again I would fiercely hold on to Each and every one of my dreams And let absolutely nothing Stand in the way of living them ‘Cause that’s what makes life worthwhile AP: 2nd place 2020 Posted on November 10, 2017
