Reality and Dreams
Look
Look at her mouth
At the thoughts that once filled that mind
The after math of a death too early
After all someone has to be the one to examine the bodies
All I want
I need
Need some little more money
Some chance to be able to show what my worth is
Chance is what I ride on
Is it dangerous to be banking so much on scholarships in order to be able to live maybe on year not in debt?
It is
Is being the last voice for someone
Being the final possiblity of closure for someone who just had their world ripped apart
The person dead
Person, not just a body
Not just another case and another daily routine
Just this
This is my passion and what runs through my viens is the ablitiy to one day give closure
Is that too much to ask for
That seems so
Seems like it when college cost more then anything I can give
Like a dream deferred almost
A dream that even though seems unreal to reach I know I will get to
Dreams of giving the bodies that come and go a name
A name
My one job is Forensic Anthropology
One goal since seventh grade
Goal that these moving fingers, these thoughts, this mind is willing to do whatever to get to that point of time

It's not the type of poem I normally read, but it was good. I found it because I was trying to find something with forensic science... Apparently you're the only person here who wrote anything about forensics... I would continue writing though because it was a very good poem.
