Favorite Quote:
Life is what we make it. Every night, every day, until the sun sets once more upon the misty sands on the beach of life.


I blindly walk; no eyes are necessary,
Not with you.
Your breath lies on my back,
For I dare not dream yet.

I sprint madly across the sand,
If only for me and my needs.
Some goal just out of sight.
I mustn't rest,
For I dare not dream yet.

I push against the tide,
And dash back as I am fought against.
You encourage progression.
Of what, I cannot say.
Only of urgency do your words
Slice swiftly across my mind.
For I dare not dream yet.

I don’t have time, so
I dare not dream yet.
