DREAMS

How I wish I could fly...

Fragile wings swept away by winds,

Clouds hinder my vision,

The sky beyond is unreachable,

Nestling among trees I seek my shelter,

Against the storms and rains...

I’m not the only one, yet I feel secluded.

The journey ahead is to be made alone,

If only I could ask, if ever allowed

Affection in abundance...tender and soft,

Faith in plenty, will to thrive,

So I may stride ahead, soaring through life,

Only to return to the place where I was;

But with a difference; I see myself in the mirror,

As someone recognizable; I’m my own friend.

That is all I strive for, the vision beheld

Now rises in full glory; only to be a reality

The fragrance of hopes sways me away,

As I walk on, ahead and ahead to see...

Dreams being fulfilled.
