So it was my first time see,
I sat in that chair and waited patiently…
Doing something l have never done before,
No turning back now, I have gone through the door ..

They all watched as she applied the potion,
I held my breath because I chose the option…
Now to see the big reveal
I wondered how my mom would feel…

Ten minutes later and I am all done,
No turning back now, nowhere to run…
Was I afraid or even a bit scared?
Will I be OK, or will they look at me weird?

I was told to face my fears,
To take a chance, to change the gears...
So I will step into the new year,
With my freshly bleached hair!

What if dreams could talk, would you allow them to freely speak?
They'd probably tell you how to get what you truly seek...
If my dreams could talk they would say to me,
Please do not give up on me...

We see that you are trying to make us come alive,
And we appreciate every stride…
But now at a crossroad we are standing still,
And the very things that make us unique, they are trying to ****...

Through disappointments and discouragements we have seen you stand,
And made things happen for us, even if no one gives a hand…
But lately you have stopped fighting, and we feel as if we are drifting away,
So we are asking you please not to stop fighting for us, so that we won't melt away…

My dreams are pleading, because I stopped believing…
My passion for success is fading, because of moments that were disappointing…
Do something, you're giving up on us!
Don't let us die; fight for us, you must!

Dreams deferred due to financial lack,
Broken promises, disappointing moments and views of loved ones’ back…
But who will fight to keep my dreams alive if not me?
I have to make them a reality…

I can't give up even when all hope is lost,
I have to keep fighting no matter the cost…
My dear dreams, I will fight for you,
Because one day you will all come true.

Ever been through hurt and the culprit pretended as though it never happened?
Ever had someone lied to your face or better yet, lied on you and swore it was the truth?
Ever had someone mentally abusing you and made it seem as if you were the one with the problem?
And you ask yourself, are they for real?!
Then you find yourself thinking that it was your fault, believing the lies, or maybe you overreacted...
Nah... It's them... Not you...

My Dearest Love,
Words alone cannot express the love I have for you,
But I will try to say it in just a few…
I love you not because of your physical beauty,
But because of the way you care even when you are off duty…
The light in your eyes that glows when you are around the ones you love,
And even those who may have caused you hurt, you show them love from above.
The size of your heart is like none that I have seen before,
You touch the lives of those you meet from their very core…
I love the way you tilt your head slightly to the right when you are a bit confused,
I am mesmerized by your eyes and lips, you are my muse…
I love the arch of your back and how your legs are slightly bowed,
What I am trying to say is, I love you from your head to your toes!
