Dreams
I've waited for times to change,
for my time to come.
I've wanted this moment for ever,
but it's only a dream.
I wake in cold sweats after horrific dreams
that shake me relentlessly.
These dreams, I shun away.
Only to be bombarded the very next day.
I watch in vain the families that have large, beautiful smiles
graced across their faces,
All i wish is to be them.
My life is all but a life full of dreams.
Dreams that will never come true.
I wish to take my sled, as a young child,
and go down that great hill from my dreams.
I wish the snow to gently land on my nose.
I wish for the roses to bloom once again.
A burning urge churns inside me.
I long for what used to be.
I could change my future,
stop the self inflicted pain and spring a new hope.
I could stop the murmurers,
stop the whispers.
I can change who I am.
But I cannot change what iI was.
