With each fallen dream,
I am scared to try again,
scared to find the pain;
my heart is full of scars,
how to reach for the stars?
Each time I fail to fly,
I fail a dream in her eyes,
yet I don’t pay the price.
As far as they now seem,
how long flies this dream?
how far does hope gleam?

Poetry & writing to me are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
Beautiful piece !!!
Thank you, GS!
Keep the flame burning strong in your heart!
I will. Thanks, Clarice. 🙂
