Ode to my dreams

Long ago, it was decided that I'm not allowed to nurture you.
But, oh my dreams, my wonderful dreams
With each day that flutters by, the monotonous extremes
I find I want to embrace you
Without light, without hope, I am just a good student
Nothing more to gain
Each night in bed I'm imprudent, I let myself go
For such joy let me hang; I want to embrace you
More than a silly daydream, a ray of hope
In my boring life, the hope of more
I want more
I want to write, I want to leave Michigan, I want to smile, I want to live with the person I love, I want to meet new people, I want to enjoy my life,
and I want to own my dreams.
