The long lost dream

by The Angel of Secrets   Apr 29, 2006


"I can not save the world" she says,
and looks at the sunset view,
She sits and thinks of wonder woman,
She wants to be her too.

At the age of only ten,
she knows what she'll become,
"If I can not touch everyone,
I will try to touch some."

She has decided years ago,
A writer is what she'll be.
She will not follow the rest of the crowd,
She won't be trapped, but free.

Five years later the dream came back,
"I almost let it fade,"
Now she thinks back to that night,
when the dream of her life was made.

She starts to tell people,
about her long lost dream,
She is so exited,
Out she wants to scream.

But people underestimate her,
"A writer? Please, come on"
Her courage took a turn,
Her fate was nearly gone.

She can't believe they even dared,
To think she couldnt win,
A tear fell down her burning eyes,
She burned deep within.

She decides in that moment,
She will never quit,
"I'm not going to save the world,
I'm going to change it!"
