A Stubborn Dreamer or a Warrior of Life?

Walking alone on a troubled path
Is a young man with a dream
He longs for a world he cannot find
He knows things aren't what they seem.

But still he clings to a treasured hope
That someday his dream will come true
He struggles with his unseen demons
Because he doesn't know what else to do.

This young man reaches out for comfort
But all he finds is another new pain
He tries hard to join the world around him
And fears he is no longer sane.

Sometimes he sees a glimmer
Perhaps a glimpse of his goal
But each time he runs to it
He finds yet another woe.

He is a dreamer, forever searching
For that fantasy that he holds so dear
He will not cease until he finds it
Always enduring the pain and fear.

Someday his journey will be over
His destination he may never see
But I know he will never give up
Because the lonely hopeful dreamer is ME.
