If I Dared to Dream

If I Dared to Dream

A Poem by N.E. St. Andrew

Would I sell myself short if I dared to dream?

 

With tangible evidence that I am given more than I could ever imagine.

 

Even if it doesn’t come wrapped in the pretty package created in my visions?

 

Would I sell myself short to not dream at all?

 

To find contentment in the knowledge that I Am and that it is enough.

 

Dare I dream and fall short, maybe feel unworthy?

 

Do I sell myself short by playing the pawn in the war of faith and ego?

 

Could I ever aspire to the greatness of my dreams if I try to name them and put them in a well thought out time frame?

 

Can it be enough to not know who I am, what I am to be and who I will be remembered by for whatever deeds I may commit in greatness or in folly?

 

Do I dare to question hope and faith because I cannot see their face?

 

Do I dare to dream?
