Note: Improvisational poem from my 11th grade English class

I want a dream,
A dream of life,
To make it seem,
That it's all right,
I want to see,
How life can change,
I want to see what I can be,
I want to be able to arrange,
My life between real and fantasy,
I feel this life is so wrong,
I'm right here,
But I feel, I don't belong,
My ship is overflowing,
I don't know what to do,
How can I keep on going?
Can I pull this through?
I want a dream,
That will come true,
I want a dream,
How about you?
