Hanging up my Dreams

My heart aches
My soul screams
When I decide to take
Away all my hopes and dreams

I jump at the sounds
Though all I hear are songs
I keep hearing the pounds
As I try to prolong

I finish my page
And step on the platform
I remember my rage
As my eyes release the storm

I put on my necklace
And prepare for the dream
I smile and embrace
My never-ending sleep
Like the stream
As I step off the deep
