A Poets Dream


Facing reality, facing conspiracy, facing humanity

I that what it is?

Dealing with cruelty, judged down by royalty

How can my heart win?

Shaken by words that mean no harm

Cause all I have are my scars

And boken thoughts.

A glimmer of faded life, a glimmer in the rain

A sprinkle of hope, it gives me faith.

Spark ignited, thougths collided, it's time again.

That flame! That flame! It shouts my name

A poet, a writer, a voice provider!

Can you create?

Will you be the people's way?

Yes. I will be here today

Silence will be drowned by my words

Reaching out for the people unheard.

Expressing our reality, beating conspiracy, helping humanity

You will hear and so will they.

My fears will finally be erased.
