kiduse2dream
I have always been a dreamer. I dreamed I would get to star in a sitcom. I dreamed I'd be in a movie. I dreamed I could play stadiums to a sell out crowd. I tried to take opportunities but they were always just out of reach. What I have left is to write about what never was.

No Walls in The Kid Used To Dream

What if... in The Kid Used To Dream

Horizons in The Kid Used To Dream

Trying To Find The Words in The Kid Used To Dream
I have this urge to write something. I just don’t know what. I used to dream about playing large stadiums or being an actor in a movie. I guess I’m just a big dreamer with no path to making them ...
The Peeve in The Kid Used To Dream

What Is Your Superpower? in The Kid Used To Dream

Why Did I Do That in The Kid Used To Dream

Reality Is Flawed in The Kid Used To Dream

Trained Myself To Do Without in The Kid Used To Dream
Growing up I was unaware that my stepdad was a narcissist. I did not know what that was at all until I was older. He had a way of projecting his pain on me for being born. He told me when I was 4...
