LIFE WITHOUT A DREAM




Life is awful without dream 
There is nothing to propel the heart within 
To strife to attain greatness 
Instead she wanders in obliviousness 

The cloud is high above the sky 
But a little bird never gives up flying 
She let the wind hold her wings 
Guide her until she reach up to touch the sky 

How long will you depend on food and shelter
Feeding from the hands of your aging parent
Yet defying everything they taught you
Because you met life in a platter of gold

How then can you have a brighter future?
If you are always doing what is wrong
The path you are walking leads to a dark torrent
It is not too late to learn to evolve

No doubt the world is full of discouragement 
This is merely to test the strength of your mind 
When confronted with challenges 
Do you put up a fight or do you sit down and cry?
