I've never had a dream,
Something I could hope to achieve,
Because, for the longest time,
I always thought I
Would be the death of me.
I always thought that I would leave
This earth in a hearse of
Purest black, but,
I've finally found what inspires me.
I know what I want to do.
Dreams - for so long
They seemed to elude me,
Never igniting the passion
I so desperately needed,
But now I'm whole, and
I know what I want to do.
I have been given purpose,
Something that I never knew before,
And now I know that there is
A light in this great darkness.
For the longest time I stood
Screaming into an infinite void
Of nothingness, but now
My mind is clear.
There are many obstacles that
Stand in the way of my dreams,
But I know that, in due time,
I will over come them, and be
Reborn as someone worthy
Of this life I'm living.
At the end of this long road,
I know that I will find
The happiness I seek,
And I will become content
With who I am.
There are many obstacles
Standing in my way, but
I know that I can overcome
Them with hard work and determination.
I will let nothing stand in my way,
I will let nothing hold me back,
Even if it takes an eternity,
I will keep on fighting to achieve my dreams.
They may be several horizons away,
But I will never let myself waver again.
I will no longer tell myself
That things only get worse from here,
That I'm not good enough for anything.
My life has only just begun,
And I plan on letting nothing hold me back.
This grand dream of mine
Is all that keeps me going, and
I swear that I will make it a reality
Before the sands of time run out.
