Allusion Poem: Final

Everyone has a dream

I dream to be loved

I dream to be successful in life

But there is still a little doubt in my mind

 

 For so long I have been trapped locked away in this high tower

Knowing that the people I have lived with my whole entire life are telling me

“I see a strong, confident, beautiful lady”

And yet they still have little or no faith and trust in me

To think that knowing that would stop me? No

It just makes me stronger to prove them wrong

The only people I can be myself   around is what keeps this smile

Laughter and good times are what keeps me going

Singing gives me the hope for a better tomorrow

Thinking of the bright side instead of the dark

Living my life to please others not myself

And proving them wrong

 Yes, there will be times when I fail and crumble

And just second guess every little thing,

Thinking, should I let them think of me that way?

Or should I push through

It’s a war inside of my head

And this war goes on forever

But sometimes you have to face your deepest fears in order to make your wildest dreams to come true
