All I need
I have a dream.
I dream of success.
Of happiness.
Of a degree.
Of my own business.
I dream of a job more than a family.
I dream of a career.
Of spreadsheets.
Of taxes.
I dream of staying as abnormal as I started.
I dream of living in a small city.
I dream of pulling through all on my own.
I dream of independence.
Strength.
Confidence.
And it is this dream that I need most,
That I couldn’t live without.
Because without my dream there would be no motivation,
No reason to live.
Without my dream I would have no purpose,
So instead of a family member,
My favorite stuffed toy,
A journal,
Or some other materialistic item,
I choose a dream,
So if you’re going to take everything I have,
Leave me my dream,
Because it’s all I couldn’t live without.
