Ecstasy of A Dreamer

Dreams Flutter,

twirling inside,

the chimerical mind,

of a dreamer;

my head soaring up,

to meet the clouds,

dancing among the stars.

Being a dreamer,

I am no stranger,

to listening to the lyrics of my heart,

perrsuading me to obtain,

a bouquet of hopes and desires,

that resonates with,the strings of my soul.

"you're impractical",

taunts the voices,

weighing my spirt down,

as self-doubt lingers,

upon my lips,

tasting the return of the bitterness,

a brackish inferiority,

leaving the gulp of confidence,

a difficult pill to swallow.

The shackles around my legs,

forces my choices to decrease,

as the chains of the past,

stifle the ability,

to utilize the clouds,

enveloping my thoughts ,

as stepping stones.

The sight of Intuition,

a gift of the prophets,

allows me to tap into,

talents of Creativity,

skills of persistence,

painting colors,

saturated in intellect,

concealed by a youthful demeanor.

The corset of Thorns,

pricking my torso,

a garment I reuse,

to wear upon my frame,

the suit of torture,

entrapping me within,

a plague of atrocious remembrance.

I return to the physical world,

abandoning my environmental prison,

to bathe in a hot spring of Lotus Flowers,

soothing my exterior form,

as I conquer one element,

of my internal Struggle.

I rise from the plethora,

of Lotus Flowers,

basking in the dawn of my metamorphosis,

gaining ecstasy,

as I arrive one step,

closer to reaching the biggest desire,

of this dreamer.
