This dream of mine

My heart's slowing down

But it's still beatin'

It still beats for you

I can feel it punching in my chest

Trying to get out

Don't know if i should let it

No, i don't think so

I got things to do

Wanna start doing something with my life

Make some money

Take you out

We'll go to one of those fancy restaurants

We'll live the dream baby

Live the dream and everything in it

Good and bad, we'll get through it just you and me

But there's no room in reality for big dreams like ours

You gotta get real

You might live the dream for a while

But you'll live with the fear of waking up too

It's much easier when you got nothing to lose

Then you ain't scared of nothing

Just enough to keep you going

Just keep going, don't stop

Try reaching that dream of yours

Just try

Even if the odds are against you

Just try

You gotta go your own way

I'm no good for you baby

I'm going down

And i don't wanna take you with me

I'm going down

Last drinks are on me

Sun's coming up

I'm tired baby, tired...

I adore the poem. it justifies the meaningful junction of self determination and repetitive will to succeed. A hard trait that you accomplished is good rhythm. Its like your heart beats to the words. Staying the same pace, Resonating with the phrase you just heard. " Just try reaching for your dreams/just try" A good message. However, I am trying to figure out where the romantic heartache splits into a motivation.
Great closing lines. Keep it up.

Thank you, i really spilled my emotions out on this one. It's about a girl i'm with. I always get inspired by the first time i kissed her and she kissed me back, just that feeling of pure joy is something i had been longing for for a long time.
