The dream to achieve is everyone’s dream. It is a goal, what we strive for. We reach for the stars with one hand and we grab hold of the moon with another. The sun might shine brilliantly upon us, but our soul is the lantern that sparks to life when the darkness conquers our hopes. Our lantern breaks through and our hopes are released. Our darkest fears vanish through space and time and we grow to know our fears as reality. The reality we wish we knew once ago. We dream to achieve the goal we strive for. It is what keeps us rolling along our highway lighted by our own lantern and the moon and the stars, when they all come together to touch and hold hands for eternity in our hearts.

Nice job.  I can tell that a lot of thought went into this.  I think that this would be a great inspiration for a poem!
