I walk on this boulevard
and try to smile
to prove my worth
in this life.
I see the stars
light up the sky
and wonder if I
will ever be able to touch them.
I guess if I do
I’ll think and
give thanks for
those who helped.
But, someday
I will flow in the
sky or suffocate
in the ground.
But these words
may live on
and teach people
to dream on.
Dream on to be someone
before their lives are over
yet, remembering to be thankful,
that’s my message.
