for as long as i can remember,
i've always wanted
something greater;
something more.
i would lie in the green grass,
while the wind caressed my face,
and stare up at the clouds
as they danced around each other
intertwining and releasing
and wondered what was beyond them.
for as long as i can remember,
the world wasn't enough for me.
my eyes were set on the skies,
the universe was mine to explore.
now, i see that it's obviously unattainable
but back then, it was my biggest goal.
but that day you lied next to me
in the green grass,
while the wind caressed our faces,
and the blue galaxies in your eyes
swirled when you smiled at me
i finally felt like i'd found something greater.
