Everyday Missions
In everyday life,
Do we notice what we are dreaming?
The dreams that we cannot hold onto.
These visions of symbolic meaning
Set us in our daily goal.
In everyday missions.
We fill the world with will
Our wild kinetic dreams
Breaking the world’s surface.
Will molds visions
Into
Everyday missions.
Has our expectations flown too high?
Seen so far away without the wings to carry.
We still try.
The twist of fate
Will always vary
From the circumstance.
Please give us a chance
Or a guiding hand.
Find some faith in our freewill.
Give us strength to take a stand.
So much selfish acts without shame.
So little recognition of the real deeds
They come unnoticed to these heartless acts of blame.
And these closed minds with shattered hearts
Trapped in a captive society
Some will try to escape
Or our drawn to the crowds of festivity
And come home to families
In a home town.
Give us the right
Or a moment to understand
Find some faith in the human will
That gives us strength to stand a fight.
The battles of everyday missions.
End…
