DREAM

Updated: Jul 31, 2021

Forgive yourself,

Forgive me.


I have let you down at times,

I have let myself down.

We have all walked down paths we have regretted.

We have all trusted in people we thought were trustworthy.


Let down by her, let down by him. Let down

by me.


Inspire others,

Inspire yourself.

Listen to music that makes you cry and laugh the same.

Eat all the wrong things,

Just to be motivated to set the slate clean every Saturday night.


A fresh start,

Full of everything and nothing at the same time.


The nothing that haunts your nights,

The everything that lights up your darkest corners.


Thank you frailty.

Thank you for your truth,

Thank you for your lies.


They stripped me down,

All seemed lost.


But then I found,

That when I was broken,

I was truly alive.


Parts of me scattered everywhere,

Like rose petals placed carefully as a romantic gesture.


Let's dream of what tomorrow brings,

Let's dream for the sake of dreaming.


Hold me tight, for I am scared.

I am frail and weak.


But a new day is dawning,

So I will rise up... for her, for him,

For me.


Life is wonderful.

At times though, it is truly shit.


We are all in a rat race for the best job, marriage, healthy lifestyle, and perfect kids.


Deep down we know,

We dream of it at night.


Who are we, without drama, war, and terror?

Who are we, if we just try to live and let live?


Who am I? With or without you,

I am just ..... ME.


The older I get,

I am a happier individual,

But I know... that I know nothing.


Maybe I know this,

that my life is complete.

With all of the mishmash of emotions, and dread of what is just around the corner.

A life like a blanket, held up to the light, full of holes.

Letting the sunshine seep through, might be the one thing to save your soul.


But who can see all those imperfections?... other than me,

Other than you.

Maybe the whole damn world.


Dream with me tonight...

No questions asked.
