A Distant Dream

One night I dreamed that I could fly
To sadness, death I said good-bye
I soared way up above fear and pain
Where friendship and kindness were clear and plain
Where no one cared what clothes you wore
Or if your clothes were from a certain store
Where love was full and real to me
The place we all wish we could be.
But while you sit and dream of this
There are opportunities you will miss.
You can make that life happen if you try really hard
Start by sending your faraway loved ones a card
Be the change in the world that you want to see.
Chase your dreams, do what's right be kind to your family.
Be kind to everyone, and yourself as well.
Be polite, respectful and try not to yell!
Remember, it's not what you've done
But it is what you do
Every day you start fresh, every day you are new
You're really quite tough, and you should always have hope
That with problems and obstacles you'll be able to cope.
If you do this and more,
You might start to say
"Wow, that distant dream isn't so far away."
