Fading Horizon

A dream, like a fading horizon,
Where the sky and earth collide
One touches hope,
The other, doubt.

I stand between the two,
Feet planted in a fractured world,
Where trust is a shadow
And faith is a whisper.

My ceiling is low,
A blanket of fog,
Yet I’m told to reach
For stars that feel too far.

In the silence, I hear
A voice, distant yet near,
Reminding me
Even the darkest clouds
Can part,
And the sun can find its way.

But for now,
I’m made to learn in the dark,
Grasping for the light
I can’t see.
