The thought of a broke businessman’s lonely midnight fall from a towering skyscraper <br />The cry of a young girl and the stranger who just raped her <br />The beading sweat of a Mexican father running not for himself, but his family, shot down for running toward a dream <br />The tears of a pregnant teenage cheerleader that got cut from the team <br />The echoing laugh of a stoner as he sees illusions that make his closet full of skeletons not at all as they seem <br />The blood of an underrated young black man sacrificing freedom for food for his family, slain unable to fulfill his scheme <br />The nightmare that all humans are truly equal and a human is not meant to have dreams <br />A glance at the theory dreams where something man was not given but forced to unlock<br /><br />Vincent Dali<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-broken-dreams/
