A Poet's Dream
I am not like them
 I do not follow those sheep, like others do
 Day, after day
 Wearing the pair of shoes everyone has
 And forgetting how to be unique.
 
 I am my own special
 I walk against the heavy flow of traffic where
 Word for word
 I do not take other people’s same advice
 As my mind hatches up its own.
 
 I look to my future
 And do not just simply follow a set plan
 Made by sheep
 About how I am supposed to live my life
 My plan is different.
 
 I have my dream
 Where we all can be different from each other
 My own plan
 Where others can select who they like to be
 Not based on their background. 
 
 I am not like them
 Blind to all the faults in the sheep’s ways
 I see them
 And I recognize how I could fix them
 So everyone can be unique.
