I use a pencil when I write down my dreams Some have been the same all these years Some came into being in the course of one night. I use a pencil when I write down my dreams Some on paper, locked in my heart Some I erased, redrafted with tears. I use a pencil when I write down my dreams Some I turned into my whimsical reality Some I had to edit because I'm realistic. I use a pencil when I write down my dreams Some make me quit because I'm pessimistic. Some make me see beyond the difficulty. I use a pencil when I write down my dreams Cannot draw the future, but I can sharpen it Can only scribble until dreams become clear. I use a pencil when I write down my dreams Will protect them from rain so they won't smear Will not stop until I find the shoe that fits.
