Starting Over Poem by Ashley Root

I dream of a land far away from here,
Without any troubles, pain or fears.
In this place I would be happy and free,
Without anyone to criticize or hassle me.
No more worries and no more tears,
Living in a world that I could grow throughout the years.
Surrounded by clear blue skies and oceans that go on for miles,
Filling my life with priceless laughter and cherished smiles.
I don't know if this place exists or if I'll ever make it there,
I just know that I can't follow my dreams here.
I want to be successful and live my life to the fullest,
I want to be admired and labeled the best.
I'm petrified to be a failure and amount to nothing,
All of my hard work has got to pay off for something.
If I could move away and start over again,
I'm certain that I could make my amends.
I'll work my hardest and hopefully make it to this place,
And live with no cares and nothing but plenty of space.
