dare to dream
they’d say to me
right before
they knocked me down,
left my dreams and i
bleeding on the floor,
left us on the harsh ground
to die.
you didn’t know
no matter
how harsh reality
is to me
and my dreams,
we won’t take cover
and hide,
waiting to die.
we’ll disrupt your world,
showing you you’re wrong.
showing you how strong
this girl
and her dreams
can be.
