Channels and scores of emotion bubble up inside:
It allows you to breathe,
And soon enough it becomes something you can’t hide.
It is the air you breathe,
It gives you life,
Life sustaining oxygen.
It is like water,
Flowing deep beneath your skin;
But for the life of you, you can’t hold it in.
It is the wind you seek,
It blows you in a direction,
One that you do not know;
But it never takes you where you do not want to go.
It is a fire in you;
It burns up inside your soul,
Giving you hope, yet taking control.
Elemental in its presence,
Basic, yet forming your essence.
That is a dream; a vision.
And without one, your life is a sure fail mission.
