Inspiration

You inspired me to cross that line,
that line which entangled my dream,
which drifted me away from the horizon,
which depleted my hope for the future.

Your inspiration pulled me through desperation,
each day, each week
To open my mind and live my dream
that once was demolished.

Your powerful words and colorful rhymes
foretold a dream worth reaching.
It desperately guides me back
to dream, to live, to write, to be the best that I can be.
