Me it is
The wisher at the well
I hope and hope
And hope my life away
I must learn not
In magic to live 
But face reality
With an iron fist
The coins tossed 
Long ago by my hand
Have touched rock bottom
Yet nothing stirs
The message of this world
Is it to dream not?
For that is what I have learned
Yet I seem unable to apply...

I won't let anyone tell me I can't dream. No matter how many times some one tells me no, I'll keep on going....
Please tell me what you think!

We wouldn't ask a rose that grew from the concrete for having damaged petals; in turn we'd all celebrate its tenacity, we'd all love tz will to reach the sun well we are the roses n these are my damaged petals don't ask me why thank God and ask me how

Epic poem! It's written so beautifully..
And yes dream on- coz dreams they are your world of possibilities. (kinda didn't make sense) ..
