...fate...
I sit lost in thought
Trying to concentrate on all practical matters.
The more I try to focus,
The more the thoughts penetrate my mind
And direct me to go elsewhere.
I try to resist their endless battle to overcome,
But they assenuate my weak body
And I am forced to yield to my thoughts.
My dreams show me hope.
The world is mine and I can do anything.
I see dreams of success and wealth
Scattered across a long life full of happiness.
I have an inner peace that constantly comforts me.
No feelings of remorse or anger are present.
Only a quiet solitude exists.
As I sink deeper into thought, I am directed to love.
I see a beautiful soul who's mind matches mine.
I reach to grab ahold, but my grip loosens
And I sink into a sea of lonliness and despair.
Two souls searching for each other
Are torn apart by society's standards.
I sit quietly as I dream I might one day reunite
With the one who is meant for me.
For now I only have the with my dreams will be fulfilled.
My thoughts no longer empower me.
They surrender so I may live my life.
I once more feel alone in a world so full of life.
Does no one understand?
I sit lost in thought, for it is in my dreams that I feel wanted.
