Writing


I have always helfd

A pen in my hand

Weaving tales

I am never sure

Which ones were already there

And which ones will become

Mine

I feel that one day

I might wake up 

And be a part 

Of some tale

I've already told

Or merely a character

In the story

I'm searching for

Something greater

Than a child's dream

A fairy tale
