I tell you my dreams
Of my aspirations and hopes and goals and dreams
And then I smile
Expecting your congratulations

You laugh in my face
Of my dashed aspirations and failed hope and worthless goals and crushed dreams
And then you smile
Satisfied.

I accomplish my dreams
Of my success and fame and fortune and fulfillments
And then I smile
Expecting your nothingness

I laugh in your face
Of your dashed accuracy and failed scorn and worthless chatter and crushed expectations
And then I smile.
Fulfilled.
