When

"When"


“When”
 
When we dream
 And when we love 
Is there anything
 Above
 When we begin
 In our dreams
 In our past
 We can try and make this last
 Change is one way of bravery
 But
 Deep inside theirs a child
 Still afraid
 Learning to crawl
 Take down the walls 
Be proud.

We think we can control ourselves but we are just like the past and the future unboundless

Courtney, There is not only an inner child deep inside, this poem reveals an inner strength "Learning to crawl, Take down the walls, Be Proud." Another poem ending in hope. Richard
