Jul 2014
Just outside my reach, it lingers
giggling promises and showing me its sun
If I could only stretch out my fingers
I would swipe it and run

Just its simple existence
Knowing it can truly be real
And at such a short distance
Its warmth I can already feel

It brings me a smile
Pushing away the inconveniences
even if its only for a while
Even if for only small instances

I beg for this to be what is seems
Please  no more lies
I plea to let me have just one of my dreams
I have been stricken down once more, but please oh please
**Let Me Rise
