Hopes & Dreams
Ever so full..
In my heart,
Thoughts of tommorow
Drench my being
But need to pull..
Myself together,
To pin my thoughts
That have gone asunder
Always..
Questioning myself,
When opportunities..
Come my way
Would I jump astray?
Would I truth 'n' dare?
Would I bare?
Myself..
To the harsh reality
Of a tough existence,
For a beautiful tommorow

A Peace within
Being all essential
Pervading the essence..
Of my soul
It is like a thirst..
Dying to be quenched
My heart wrenched
But still..
Need to go
The only way..
To find ALL happiness
Is to follow
The song of..
My soul.
