" The Dreamer "

   I have always been known as a "Dreamer".                         To visualize magical things happening for me.   People often say come back to the real world,     of which you are trying to break free.     They may think my head's in the clouds        'cause I like to ...contemplate.    I love to ponder this influence I'm under       before my chances are... too late.      Some think that I'm a little strange     because I never wanted to fit the mode.    I've always been one to do things my way.    I didn't listen much to what I was told.   I dont like to hear of negative reasonings.    That is for dreamers much bigger then me     who don't believe in anything it seems.      Yet, they miss doors of opportunity.                        Even though I get discouraged at times    and I don't always know where I'm going,    I hold on to my faith in God and myself.     Everyday, I can feel my hope growing.       This will work, I can promise you.   Give this a try, at least once in your life.    Don't pay any attention to "skepticals"  who'll rip your dreams apart, like a knife!        When you want to achieve a goal      you have to think,  plan  and   do.    I dare you to dream and take these steps.          It will surely work for you!     It might make you a $Million Dollars$.     You could find that..."One Special Love".     Just wishful thinking, without acting        will never ever be... just enough!   Where would our world be without dreamers?    To re-arrange the ugly face of tomorrow.    And make this a better place for living.   To take away at least some, of the sorrow. People think the greatest dreamers are "crazy".      On the contrary, the opposite is true.    If you don't dream, you'll lose your mind.      Dreaming is a needed survival for you.      So still...I will...continue to dream.      I'd love to think how my life could be.      If you dream about it and then, feel it        you might just improve your reality.      Well, while you were reading this poem,      Did you happen to have, a dream or two?       If you did, then you know how I feel.        Now...somehow...The Dreamer Is You!

Additional Notes:
The poem, which was written a few months ago, completely describes me and my life. You might say I was hardheaded. Some of the rhymes are heard often but, these are necessary to complete this poem. Also, some punctuation is needed so please, if you just read this on a line by line basis then I'm sure that you'll enjoy it. 11 words were capitalized intentionally.
