Different Dreams

I think I have different dreams.

At first, I just want to be a girl,
to have a soft life,
to feel pretty.

Then I want to be a good daughter,
someone my parents can look at
and be proud of.

Then I want to be loved.
Not admired from a distance,
not chosen when it's convenient,
but loved completely.

I want to be independent,
to buy the things I once had to ask for,
to take care of myself, and the people I love.

Some days,
I dream of being successful,
to build something that lasts,
to hear my name in places I never imagined I'd be in.

On other days,
I dream of a peaceful home,
the type where laughter comes easily
and love doesn't have to prove itself.

Sometimes,
I dream of being a wife,
of being a mother,
of creating the warmth I've always wanted to come home to.

And sometimes,
I simply want to be enough.
Enough for myself.
Enough for the people I love.

The dreams keep changing.

One day it's beauty.
Another day it's freedom.
Then love.
Then purpose.
Then peace.

And sometimes,
I don't dream of becoming anything at all.

I just want to be happy.

For once,

without having to work so hard for it.

wait this hit me way harder than i expected. the part about wanting to be enough for yourself and the people you love... yeah that's the one that keeps me up at night. and the ending just wanting happiness without fighting for it for once? literally felt that in my chest. thanks for putting words to something i've been feeling for years but couldn't say
