My Hopes and Dreams They Flash, Then Pass

Before I Grasp Them…

As if someone ran away with a diluted scene from my conscious stream

🎉 Wholeness, Oneness lost to temporary moments of isolated revelry for a few.

I’ve seen how you hold me down underground!

Then come around and say “rise and abound?”

Only to be sent back down!

I refuse, It’s abuse, overuse; the length of time I’ve been silenced and held down.

Now sequestered, my dreams are realized by others

Smothered, I smolder, while thoughts of planning another, or us together fade to gray.

I’d prefer not to stay, but if I must, I refuse to hide away.

I WILL SCREAM OUT LOUD IN FRONT OF ANY CROWD I CHOOSE.

…Until My Hopes and Dreams All LAST

even if you choose to pass on me, on eternal love
