Many things in life have I longed to do,
Though few of them I ever followed
through.
To write books, learn a foreign language
, play the piano…
These are but a few dreams I have failed.
To become a singer, play a movie role…
So many things have I let slip away.
I’ve listened to the critics who say “Get
a real job.”
But half-heartedly have I taken their
advice.
My heart tells me to go another way.
I have suffered for my convictions.
I’ve lost many friends and much respect.
But they are happy settling in life.
I can’t live that way.
I am destined for greater things.
Things I refuse to let go.
Should the entire world stand against me,
I will travel the path my heart wishes to
go.
A writer, a singer, an actor, and
whatever else I choose
Will be what I become; for they are who I
am.
A dreamer with aspirations that will be
followed through.
