PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I can't forgive those who always said
dreams are seldom what they seem
time to grow up an forget these crazy
things

what if I don't fit in to the social circle
mortgage an a four car garage trying to
keep up with the Jones

sitting in some office feeling caged
making life seem so empty
is no life for Me

I feel trapped between who I am
an who you think I should be
all I wanted was to be free

dream's die hard an I'm resurrecting mine
I can't hide behind the lie's
can't you see your life is not mine

all you can see is the bridges that I burned

all I can see is I'm free

~ D Donner ~ 1983
