I am a dreamer

Often staring into the distance

A space cadet if you will 

A dreary-eyed doe look 

As the curls of my hair fall to the side of my face 

I barely remember the morning tasks

 

I walk into doors and walls

With my ever forgetful approach

And dainty stance 

My mind is always racing

Never stopping for one thought 

Addicted to the flood of dopamine 

That anchors itself in my brain


A visionary 

Building the foundation of my conviction 

Both asleep and awake

I cannot halt

Every thought 

As it turns into the strings of my ideas

And reminds me that 


I am a dreamer 


The author's comments:

I'm a 17 year old high school senior with ADHD, I often find myself lost in space or thought and this poem was a dedication to a part of myself I never really thought to love.
