Do my dreams matter ?




I am seventeen
In my teen

I want to see the world
Never seen
By my eyes

I was excited
To have
Transited
From a child with a dream
To
A man with a vision

I want to
Fly
But I
Feel chained
With shackles
Which are not mine.

Don’t they trust me
To work hard
Make the right decision
Or
Am I just another toy
In their hand.

I wake up at night
Breathless
Screaming
Crying

Scared that I will shatter
Their dream.

Do my dreams really matter?

Which they want
To manipulate
And cremate
in their dreams for me.

Let me end this battle

Today
Let me
Break the shackles
Once and for all

And fly
to a world
Where
I can make my choice
without being judged.

Goodbye,
till we meet again
In a place 
Where 
I can be ME
You can be You

Goodbye!
