Making A Living

I’m a musician
I play music to millions
I sit on stage under the spot light
And sing with my guitar
Every person in the crowd takes in every word
I’m an actor
I am a Hollywood super star
People go to movies
Just to see me do another five star performance
I’m a millionaire
I won the lottery
I have more money then I need
I have a mansion and everything I want
In reality I’m just Nick
I have no job, no money
But I have my dreams.
