Fantasies are not dreams.
Fantasies are a wish
to fulfill those dreams.
When your whole world
starts falling apart,
how do you find the strength
to hold yourself together?
How do you find the strength
to keep up with your work
when in your head
is the image of the latest guitar?
No string is easy to stretch,
no drum is easy to beat,
no music is easy to play
and no math is easy to enjoy...
How do you find the strength
to study science
when volcanoes are erupting
on the HBO at 9PM?
How do you find the strength
to fit in the words from the dictionary
when Harry Potter spells
are all over in your head?
How do you find the strength
to endure Shakespeare
when Kristen Stewart's having a date
with super hot Robert Pattinson?!
Keep your mind on your goal,
keep your head in the game,
keep your heart in your books
and keep your life under black ink.
In theory, all is well;
in theory, it's a lot of fun;
in theory, it's a matter of determination;
in practicality, it's easier said than done!
It's a quandary,
an unanswerable question,
a lava-loaded volcano,
a sinking RMS Titanic.
When we do what we can,
God will do what we can't.
Half the promise is done
now Lord, it's your turn...
