Wishes and Dreams
A dream is a wish your heart makes
when you’re fast asleep,
but what about when you’re wide awake?
Do we still have the power to create
our own destiny and fate?
I used to wish on stars for my dreams to come true,
but they always seemed out of reach;
just a twinkle in the sky,
a reminder of all I couldn’t achieve.
But then I realized that wishes are just words,
floating aimlessly in the night;
it’s our actions that make our dreams come true,
our choices that guide us towards the light.
So now I dream with my eyes open,
my heart beating loud and strong;
I chase after my wishes with determination
and hold on tight when things go wrong.
Because a dream is more than just a wish –
it’s a fire burning inside, a passion and desire;
and when we let it lead us, guide us, inspire us,
we’ll find ourselves soaring higher and higher.
So don’t just close your eyes and make a wish –
open your heart, awaken your soul;
let your dreams be more than just words –
let them be the flames that make you whole.
