MY DREAMS AND I

Don't bite off
     more than you can chew
It can't come true
     Your dreams never do

Don't dream
     It won't come to pass
Don't even ask
     Once again you'll be last
               And a laughing stock
                                at that

No matter what you do
     It won't come true
     Your dreams never do

Don't bite off
      more than you can chew
  It won't come true
  Your dreams never do

****

Yet they don't die
     My dreams wait
          dust-covered
               to fly
          on my next try

My dreams are alive
     They thrive
          on the slightest light
               the slightest air
     They dare
          to stir
          to unfurl
               their wings

My dreams and I
     are ready
          for one more try

My dreams do not die
     They wait
          gestate
     They long
          to belong to the world

My dreams and I
     The sky's not half as high
           as the height they would fly
               if I try
                     or so it seems
                         just one more try
               if I dare
               if I care
               if I try
                         one more try

My dreams and I

I bite
     more than I can chew
I learn
I need help
Will you
     help
          so we can reach
                         the sky
                                   my dreams and I

****   

Don't bite
     more than you can chew
It won't come true
     Your dreams never do

****

I try
     Some dreams fly
          halfway to the sky

and I dare
     to try
          for that flight
                    to the sky
                    to the stars

My dreams and I
     my life and I
we dare
     we care
          to try
          to learn
          to yearn

and again
     to try
          to try
               to try

          my dreams and I

 

My dreams and I

My dreams don't die
     They long to fly
           yearn for the sky

****

Don't bite
      more than you can chew

*****

But my dreams do

A dozen years ago,
I began to wake up
with word pieces -
words music, spoken word, songs -
in my head.
Escape velocity.
Echo of the echo.
Tank almost empty.
Can't cross the gap.
Welcome into my world.
