Dreams, Take My Hand

An original poem about embracing your dreams once again. Even in the storm, don't ever forget.

Dreams, Take My Hand

Hey readers! This week, I placed focus on feeling uneasy or regretful in forgetting a goal. Truly, it can be a challenge to place a dream you've had for awhile in motion. I can attest, that these last few weeks, have been difficult for me to remain motivated. I tried my best to showcase these feelings into this personification poem; maybe someone can relate to this for themselves. We will all go through different phases of discovering ways to achieve any goals that are important to us. However, always remember: never forget dreams even in the storm. As elementary as this may sound, it indeed, is true: your aspirations are uniquely 'you.' Take this with you and allow inspiration to follow. Much love to you all!


The rain keeps falling,

Tears from the sky

In a moment like a flash of lightening

The air became less dry

It continued to seep into the ground

Making it muddy, almost like quicksand

Take my hand, Dreams, take my hand

Remind me of yesteryear

Allow the day to be filled with dreaming

When I was younger and more determined

Lately, I've been reminded of being passionate

I can feel the sense of joy just thinking of

Achieving past what I limited myself to

The clouds of the current storm began to roil

As if I was still missing something in mind

Thunder crashed and agreed for me to never forget

Dreams, take my hand, take my hand

Walking down the memories in my head

Of what I knew I could be instead

Sleepless, I tossed and turned

As the wind whistled like a warning

I knew it before the morning:

Dreams cannot be forgotten

They are not my regret

Dreams, take my hand, take my hand

So, I can never forget

I can never pretend

My dreams ever left, the rain now gone

I do, truly, feel best

To know that when the rain leaves

What matters to me creates the seams

To the definition of 'me'

Dreams, keep me close

Dreams, keep me safe

Dreams, take my hand, take my hand

They remain with me

Forever again

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
