Chasing a dream

by Timothy B   Apr 20, 2006


They all made me feel so alone
They made me feel so sad at times
Classmates and friends
The ones that I grew up with in school
They where the ones that at times
Made me feel the worst
They teased me and made fun of me
Even teachers at times
All because I had this dream
Of someday becoming a pilot
At times they would make me cry
Either at school
Or on my bed when I got home
The insults and the remarks
All supposed to illustrate
That I would never make it as far
To be able to reach my dream
I stopped thinking about it eventually
I just started ignoring them after a while
I did not care about the world anymore
I stopped worrying about their words
I stopped listening to the insults
And I just moved on with my live
Chasing my so called stupid dream

Now here I am today
One step closer to my dream
One step closer to my goal
Where those people that teased me are
That I don’t know anymore
A part of me wants to know
But the rest of me does not care to know
They have taken a big part of me
When they buried me in insults
They caused me so much pain back then
That I just chose to ignore them
And the pain that grew inside
Now I am on the final streak
And I will reach my dream
My stupid little dream
That they all said I was not cut out for

If they could just see me now
I wonder what they would say…

****This basically reflects my life all the way from elementary school, when I first said that I wanted to become a pilot. I am about to reach my private pilot license now.****
