Day 8-30 Poems in 30 Days

I was supposed to write yesterday but it was busy and after getting home from the hospital I just decided to lay down haha so today is a 2 for 1.

Dreams
I ask my students to dream
To ponder what would be the best case scenario 
So many dreams are so simple
Health
Happiness 
Success in future endevours 

The unique paths they all want to take

Mom
Athlete
Actress
Writer

They all seem so hopeful 
So driven

I wonder when the dream starts to dim?
I hope not too soon. 

Silence
There is a unique silence in a hospital room
The beeps and alarms just blend into the 
nothingness

Alone in our thoughts 
The clock just stops ticking
The world is on pause 
Their breathing becomes the only thing you notice
So peaceful.
