Standing behind unyielding glass Watching a dream that is within grasp and a world away What should be mine but I don’t deserve Banging, screaming, choking on my own fear and stupidity Do you hear me? Do you see me? Can you feel me? Here I stand blinded By tears, diamonds, and a false reality Pain is relative An association of the mind What we don’t experience we don’t know and we don’t learn Learning is growing Love is binding and forever giving strength and purpose Broken I will not be, crumpled I will not remain Thankful for mistakes, love, friendship Focusing on tomorrow drawing from within Finding beauty Finding peace A dream?
