Poem: The Dream

The Dream

I don’t need to close my eyes
to see the darkness all around.
I don’t need to close my eyes
to feel that I’m alone.

In the distance,
a beacon ignited
a halo hidden in the dark.
A wonder sighted,
I know who you are.

All that I dreamt,
is a purpose for existing
in an reality of uncertainty.
Just a whisper, “I still believe in you”

And so you know,

in every dream I’ll ever dreamt,

in every promise that I’ll keep,
in every word that I’ll write,
and until there’s nothing left,
I’ll burn for you
