On my mind is the dream
which has continued to lead me on
to my definition of prosperity;
which to me is that limitlessly pure,
boundlessly sparkling, endlessly beautiful,
unalterably warm, perfectly glorious,
peacefully vibrant and faultlessly welcoming
bright, blue sky.
The dream leads me on despite efforts,
to hold me back,
to criticize my every decision,
to belittle my achievements,
to change my mind,
to change my heart’s desires.
It doesn’t matter that the skeptics
never try to understand my journey,
never try to understand who I am, and
never try to understand my values;
and so they judge me based on
themselves, their values and their beliefs.
But in spite of this,
I know I must go
where my dream will lead me;
I know I must go
where my dream takes my heart;
I know I must go
where my heart longs to be.
And when I finally find that place
where the dream takes me;
when I finally find that place
where the dream takes my heart;
when I finally find that place
where my heart longs to be;
then, and only then,
will my heart find the peace
that my soul desires.
But until then,
my soul will not be denied
it’s faith to dream;
because it’s that faith to dream
that keeps my dream alive.
Until then
I must go where my dream takes my heart.
Until then
I must go where my soul
longs my heart to be.
And so my dream will undoubtedly lead me on;
my dream will lead my heart on,
despite the negative and the hate vibes.
My dream will take my heart,
and hopefully my eyes too,
to that bright, blue sky
where my heart is meant to be.
My dream will take my eyes
where they will see
the beauty of the bright, blue sky
that my dream has being seeing
all along so clearly
as it led my heart, and my eyes home,
to the bright, blue sky.
My eyes will see
the vision in the dream;
that vast, sunny, absolutely cloudless,
calm, beautiful, flawlessly pure,
seamlessly unblemished,
radiant and blissful
bright, blue sky.
