"It's Just a Dream" by Anonymous, 17 | February 2020
Imagine being in a river.
Drifting away from your loved ones
You are struggling to keep afloat
You need help immediately
But no one is around you
There’s a strong branch up ahead
It is capable of holding you up
With all the strengths and attributes
That defines you
You get a hold of the branch
You remember a quote from the past
It gives you the chills thinking of it
You say it as loud as you can:
“Life is like a river, it runs wild, crazy and wacky.
There are no boundaries to keep you on the right path.
It’s you who has the decision to make.”
You are overwhelmed by the words coming out of your mouth
That tears began to run down your face
You are lying in your bed awake now
It was just a dream
Your parents tell you “It’s a Marathon, not a sprint.”
So, take it slow and steady
Your family has your back
And will always have it
Just remember to
Never drift away
