It was maybe, yes maybe ten years ago.
I had not two but one actual dream.
I was old enough to know,
the places I go,
and soon I envisioned my dream.
My one and only dream consisted of this:
I want to be a writer of many fine works,
such as this one that gives readers some quirks.
I started out small with a few rhymes,
then I wrote poems- faster than the flip of a dime.
I write about anything but not everything,
as long as I have something

The word dream you used a tad repetitively and the flow wasn't as smooth as I beleive you might have aimed it too. Use of the word "two" in line two seemed misplaced and rhyming "rhymes" with the singular "dime" also threw it off pace. Aside from those minor details great work! :)
