POEM STARTER

Submitted by West Lee

Write a poem or story about someone who has repeatedly tried - and failed - to accomplish something important to them.

Done Dreamin

What I thought was destiny turned out to be a distant dream

Stuck in the land of make believe, all I see is what I couldn’t be

I tried then tried again

I guess sometimes you just can’t win


It cut deep then it cut deeper

I was once a firm believer

That my dreams could all come to fruition

I still grab the old goal by its neck

Then scream with all my chest

And i fear that I’ll be gone before it listens


I always tried my best to fit a mold not for me

And in this empty space it feels so lonely

I guess it’s just a chapter of my story

So now I’ll hit the hay, dreams are made for sleeping anyway
