A toast to dreams

I wish for a day where my dreams do not change for each day of the week.

But perhaps I do not.

Because some days I wish for a future where I am always busy, in a city that sleeps even less than I do.

Other days where all I wish for is a quiet life in the French countryside, where my only worry is what I will wear to water my garden.

Yes, these ideas are both fanciful, but it is so much fun to be able to dream mindlessly.

So, a toast to dreams that change daily and to people that do too.

    I always said that it’d be the best day when I leave this school

    But I’m not so sure now.

    Sure, it wasn’t always easy,

    But I gained so much good:

    The best teacher I’ve ever had.

    The confidence I always needed.

    I will be the court jester

    But when you remind me of my past

    My lungs refuse to laugh

    Now I fall quiet

    A sad smile dances on my lips

    As I glance at you with pain in my eyes

    Rain.

    Laughter.

    Smiles.

    Swimsuits and twister.

    Getting soaked just for fun.

    This is girlhood.

    This is happiness.

    This is freedom.
