My Dream

Dream, I had one
My vision beyond my waking eyes could see.
How did I stray from it?
How did I find myself here?
I don´t recognize this path
Was the influence of others stronger than my dream?
Were their loud voices drowning mine?

I internalized their fears
I replaced my dream with fear
I felt my dream was unrealistic and too risky
So I settled for plan B.
I left my dream in the land of the unknown
Failing to make it into reality
Anxiety has pinned me to the ground
To the point I fail to try.

It is about time I go back to sleep and dream again
My journey is mine and mine alone
My dream is personal
I should go ahead and live my dream.
Yes, they maybe right
No, they maybe wrong
But at least I live my dream.
