Am I Dreaming

I miss something I never had, gripping my heart constantly my mind drifts , or quiet becomes the tune in my ear. Shattered dreams, Questions of why This is day to day life, as the years fly by. I miss the place I never gone, the songs I never song the stories I have yet to write Not out of my mind, yet not seen so... out of sight When my heart cries, it grips tears of dreams that only come true when my shut eyes are in view. I close them "WOW" oh so beautiful!! My dream shows no more regrets no more visits of past pain The things I've learned become shelter from it's rain. Learn from it, grow from it, move on......from it Take with me only that which makes me strong that which empowers my soul I had to go through all along Upon splitting open my lids a light of joy squints my vision as new ideas transforms my many decisions All while smiling, I see more clearly my love for writing, my heart holds so dearly This is where I find freedom of expression I find a place of restoration Here the words of my heart can flow Here is my life's purpose...I know To write and relieve all hopes, desires dreams, and needs The pathway of "MY" writer on how I shall succeed "WAKE UP ME" there is more to see dreams can be seen past hurtful reality So I write.... an expression of me a joyful vision, I'm so happy to see With or without, Closed Lids
