Is a Man All of His Dream

I found your soul 
To be as lost as mine
And together we can
Asks questions of
What we need 
And what you want
From someone else
Because its easier to take 
Someone else’s dream 
Than create your own.

And don’t you believe 
That you can see 
Through others and 
Find yourself and believe 
Others can see through you
And find themselves 
as they stand in front of you
And want to Know 
As much as you do
When there is so much  to dream

You ask if he wants 
To hate others who are
Different from the rest 
And try to justify 
Their own existence
By knowing they are okay
Even though they are different
From your dream and what 
You have worked hard 
To understand  and believe

The dream is always real
And when you are aware 
That it is real 
 Your reality
Becomes about the dream 
And you realize 
That you are not all 
Of what you could become
Because you do not believe
That you are all of your dream
