I dream (something that you actually dream about)
I try (something that you really make an effort towards)

Answer 1

based on your willingness to know when to ask for help when needed, id say you’re discerning. you might also consider yourself humble or reasonable.
perhaps you wonder about how you are perceived by others? it’s not a bad thing if you are, just an idea. or maybe you wonder about other peoples ideas.
maybe you hear the voices of those who object injustice, as shown in the media though certain social justice movements.
maybe you see buildings burning or people marching (social movements - i don’t think you need to add your opinion unless you want to)
maybe you want change, or success, or to improve yourself.
don’t be embarrassed to talk about pretending to be a character during a childish game. utilize that reality into an art form. for example, if you want to be a doctor or a nurse, maybe say “i pretend to listen to my future patients hearts.”
maybe say you feel that change is coming.
instead of saying that you’re touching a physical object, try saying something along the lines of “i touch the hearts of those who need encouragement.” if you choose to use a physical object in your work, that’s okay too!
maybe you worry about what the world has come to, or how many lives will be negatively impacted medically, psychologically, or economically as a result of the pandemic.
maybe you cry about people who die, or people who live with dementia, or maybe you cry when someone you love is sad.

Answer 2

I am small and thin. I wonder how many people die a day. I hear the squeaking of the shuffling feet in the subway on a rainy day. I see the man mourning his wife’s loss on the bench next to me. I want to be loved. I am small and thin. I pretend I’m fine. I feel as if the world doesn’t want me. I touch the man’s shoulder in sadness. I worry that he needs me. I cry with him, his tears draining into the metal below. I am small and thin. I understand love now. I say “You’ll be fine.” I dream about high above in the stars. I try to make it all up. I hope they will listen. I am small and thin.
