No Longer

I no longer want to write about my hopes and aspirations.

I have filled too many pages with unfulfilled dreams.

I no longer want to put down on paper goals I will fail at.

Too many times I have set goals I cannot reach.

I no longer want to expose myself to the clicking tongues.

So often I end up looking like a silly fool.

I no longer want to reveal my unattainable desires.

Too easily they become cursed and bring ridicule.
