Your Dreams Can Be a Reality
An entry into the Tattoo This Line challenge.
Within each beat of a dying heart
As ragged breaths struggle to escape
Past memories begin to depart
Playing out in my mind like a tape,
No words can describe the grief inside
An ending too soon to comprehend
So many wonders I hadn't tried
And so many people I called friend,
If I had the time to live life twice
I'd designed my life with artistry
Tell myself one key bit of advice
Your dreams can be a reality.
