Your dreams are moving forward
While your life is standing still
All the things you hoped for
Leave a whole you cannot fill
The one thing you were proud of
That you thought you’d always do
Now seems so far from happiness
Forget all that you knew
In the blink of an eye
Your dreams can be shattered
Your hopes for the future
Were all that mattered
With everything you wanted
Gone down the drain
You have nothing to wish for
You’re left with all the pain
Whoever said life was easy
Never truly felt sorrow
How can they pass judgement
On a world based upon tomorrow
One false move
And your life is constant misery
All you ever lived for
Will turn to hurt and fury
Your dreams, they will not wait
The are slipping slowly away
You have lost what life is about
Your hearts emotions are at play
One day, and your life is over
It’s time to pick up the pieces
Start all over again
As your meaning slowly ceases

**It's better to be hated for who you are, than loved for who you are not**

a bit negative, but I suppose that's the part of life that inspires some good poetry...as is the piece I just read...good job.

Be yourself.  Say what you feel.  Nothing is wrong. To your own self be real!!

it's a good thing that there is an alternate point of view to this poem or life would be a pretty crappy idea...it takes a good poem to make us think about that...nice job.

Be it in the truest form, or a desperate lack thereof, fail not to understand that the inspiration is love.
