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.
