Kill That Dream
By Caleb James K.
If only my pen could pay these bills
and I no longer have to live like this
the thought of working another day gives me chills
and writing all day is what I miss
before life got so complicated
and responsiblity took hold
I can say I waited
that I was so bold
for success to come
from the tip of my pen
and where I’m from
that’s sometihng not accomplished by men
work all day
to make money for other people
that’s the way
it’s done when you’re one of the sheeple
put your dreams on hold
and do what’s expected
fit the mold
and you won’t get rejected
writing is a dream
for others to scoff at
and it would seem
life has killed the dream
just
like
that
