Reality

A Poem by Meliss@k
"

Dream. Strive. Do.

"
27 years now, and what have I done?
Where did my time go,
Where did my dreams go,
Where is my imagination?

Ken and Barbie, Breyers, and dolls
Cowboys on wallpaper covering the halls...

27 years now, and what have I done?

Time flies by like hungry mosquitoes,
While dreams die alongside bitten immaginations...

Oh the things I could have done
Could have said
Given
Loved...

“Why not?
Still do it??
Don’t give up??
Just, renew it?”

27 years, and 27 more to come
Take a step,
Take a breath,
Open my eyes,
...Reach for it?

Live my life,
Love adventure,
Isn’t this? What i’ve always wanted??

Dreams
Time!
Imagination

From now on
I’ll be living,
My Unexplainable
Undeniable
REALITY,
and Childhood Expectation

A very relatable topic, i believe many of us have similar thoughts and emotions. Time is a fickle notion and the past can be more of a hinderance to our future and dreams than our actions today. Thanks for a great read I enjoyed it immensely

I am inclined to think that your age has left you with valuable experience and more than enough time to embrace whatever direction you still wish to follow
Good luck

Thank you dave! I think we all have these moments of “life epiphany” no matter the age :)
Ah, to be 27 again. Believe me, barring tragedy, you have plenty of time.

It’s true that I have plenty of time ahead- but the time gone is the misfortune 🥺
26 and loving this! I like the structure- a solid story-like progression to a big declaration! It's a great, simple and effective style that I'm definitely a fan of.
