Closer to my Dreams

by jordyn-c-taylor

Sometimes I feel like my dreams are moving farther away from me with each step I take towards them. And the fears never seem to subside. pushing them away I step ~~closer to my dreams~~ Upward and on, beyond the realms of reality which contain me. I think therefore I am. Therefore I will be. And I step once more ~~closer to my dreams~~ Sometimes it feels like I am silently screaming, and full of doubt that I arouse within me, sometimes it feels like I can't breathe. And then I look towards the sky close my eyes and let the heavens lead as I take a step upward and on and keep moving ~~closer to my dreams~~ Letting go of insecurities, understanding more of what is real, understanding more of what is me. Praying for enlightenment and seeking a greater purpose, something deeper, something more and beyond just me. Searching for something but not sure what it is I need . And so I strain and I stress, and the weight then moves into my chest. nothing will ever come I tell myself, and I hear a voice say "never give up, just take that step". And I pick up the pieces from the mess I have left and step ~~closer to my dreams~~
