Its not easy being human

your born into a race for life,

yet you have this imagination

that fights to survive.

So as you grow

you feed it

believe you can become,

a singer an actor a musician

not just another human.

So you think outside the box

let you dreams escape

stand before a mirror

imagine you are great.

You did the unthinkable

you stopped believing in a box

you are now the one

that always was.

You.

Your parents tell you

stop daydreaming

you will never be that one,

when in fact they had themselves

dreamed such dreams

when they were young.

Now you have grown

so has the dream

reality is what it has sown,

you ask yourself

dare I step out of the box

try to become that one.

That imagined box has kept you trapped

ever since you were a child,

now opportunity stands before you

to grasp it you find so hard,

confidence is what you lack

so heads up

pull your shoulders back

go step outside

do not look back,

live your dream

while you can,

be the person you always were

without the prison of that box

just an open door

what was

is no more.
