Poem 2

A Distant Dream

My patience wears thin

As my thoughts pace my hearts surface…

Leaving parts bare like balding grass

Confusion about my circumstances

Haunts my daily routine

Causing me to question every last detail

My dreams are vivid

I feel your arms around me

Holding me

For fear that in letting go

You will lose that connection

Between our intertwined heartstrings

You won’t let me fall

Your strength carry’s me

Through every trial

My tears seize

My laughter grows

You are the light to my life

Pause

Awaken

Do you even exist?
