My Dream Has Become My Goal -My Goal Has Become My Dream Poem by louis rams

I have traveled down so many roads
In the dreams that were untold.
Dreams take us to places we’ve
Never been before.
Opening up our minds
And opening different doors.

Dreams of hope, dreams of love
Sent from up above.
Dreams that set your heart fluttering
Like the wings of a bird
Seen but hardly heard.

Dreams of goals that we set
But haven’t gotten to yet.
But my dream is not a simple one
I want to change the bad s that were done.
To abolish human trafficking and child abuse
Although it seems like it’s no use.

The almighty dollar is the bottom line
And has been with us since the beginning of time.
Traffickers make millions- something we will never see.
But at least we know that we are living free.

Then there are the abusers
both men and women alike
Who take advantage of the weak
Because they can not fight.

Child abusers, women abusers
They are all the same
They put blame on society
And yet they have no shame.

You know you have a problem
So medical help you should seek
This form of aggression has
reached its boiling peak.

To some this is the norm for what
They have gone through
But taking it out on others
Is not what you should do.

To stop all of this is my dream.
I will spread the word to all
Who love to read
We must tell everyone
We must plant the seed.

Let us change the laws to help
All the abused and the oppressed.

Abusers and traffickers are not concerned
About going to hell.
Just look at their smirk and you can tell.
