Dreaming

I will myself to fight on. To fight for peace To fight for them To fight for us. So I can try, once more To live in a dream.

I reach out.

 

For the distant wish
The shooting star
Silver raining, shimmering
Past the glowing moon.

 

I try to hold on.

 

Grasping the fabric
Of time and space
Willing for me to stay
Yet my hand lets go.

 

I am falling.

 

The darkness welcomes me
Nothingness stretching below
The tiniest sliver of light
Shining brightly above.

 

I try reaching.

 

The glow is dimming
And before my eyes
It shatters.
My hope breaks with it.

 

I wake.

 

My dream is gone.
Reality greets me with arms wide open
But I turn away
Refusing to see the truth.

 

Where has it gone?
What has the world come to?

 

I stand alone
Voicing thoughts that nobody appreciates
Yet I will myself to fight on.

 

To fight for peace
To fight for us
To fight for them.

 

So I can try, once more,
To live in a dream.

What I was feeling, pretty much, today. xPPP Just felt I should turn it into a poem. :)
