Dare To Dream Poem by Arline Richards

I dont know what i dream
i dont know where to go,
I know that nothing is what it seems
All the pain and sadness i took out on my body
All the cuts and bruises that im hiding from everybody
I have never dont this in my darkest hour
Now i wish all the screaming could be drowned out in a shower
I need a place to escape
A place i could call my own heaven
But it doesnt exist my world
only in fantasies are where anything can happen
All my dreams are locked up and shattered with everyone laughing
Yet i wake up from a nightmare and realize i never fell asleep
