To Be Heard

To be heard,
To be heard
What it means to be heard
Sometimes just words,
Sometimes more absurd
If I could soar like a bird
Who knows what I'd learn
The sky and the seas,
The clouds & the trees,
Cool winds and the breeze,
It's all so serene.
To be he heard
And believed
It seems like a dream
But with all we've achieved
A "dream" is just a dream
Today dreams are ideas
That have yet to be redeemed
And it would seem
That we've deemed
The impossible reached
But there's still lots to teach
And there's still lots to learn
There's still heights to reach
It's too soon to discern
This may be a poem
But it's also speech
One that I hope can reach
The dreamer in you
And say those dreams can come true
But always remember, it's not about what you dream
It's about what you do.
