Unlike the dreams we wish we're real,
Reality always bites you in the ***,
It's one dreams that can keep a person whole,
But one without dreams is empty,
This emptiness lies within the soul,
Where one has lost all hope in these dreams they once held,
A child that doesn't strive for what they want to be,
Becomes a person slowly broken from the inside out,
Emptiness of the soul leaves a void,
A void from which your fears soon,
Soon begin controlling your actions,
Bending from what you once wanted to be,
To be the person who fears failure in their dreams,
Soon in their hearts to be blackened,
