What Dreams are Made of

I’m a successful artist with an endless money stream.

I own a beautiful beach house and I'm on the sailing team.

I fly a private jet.

Not a single stress or fret!

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! Ugh, was that really just a dream?

About the Creator

Kristen Balyeat

Words fly to me on the wind, bump into me as I'm strolling the city, splash me in the face while I rest by the river, and shake me awake in the middle of the night—I’m humbly one of the vessels they use to come to life.

Also, i love you:)
