Hey readers! I hope this poem reaches you well, wherever you are in the world. I wanted to do another piece emphasizing how important it is to visualize what you want even within the world's chaos. There will be points when you feel that dreaming seems fleeting and childlike but focusing on making those ideas a reality can change your perspective in a new way. We live in a time where things seem to be as bleak as ever, but it doesn't have to make us feel bleak. It all starts with some little ray of hope. It won't be easy, but I hope this motivates you to seek it out. Peace and love!
A word on changing my thoughts
To a more perspective view
The world itself is quickly turning into
An ever clearer glimpse of
Times such as this
Where reflection is aspiration
Not that of vanity
But an image of deeper connection
To my spirituality
Some may think this sounds "preachy"
While others may see it as "peachy,"
However, I never cared for approval
All I need is belief in myself, it's true
And the support from those I hold dear
In order to build strength and conquer
This world that can sometimes thrive on fear
You must understand the inner glow that you possess
It isn't tangible to many, but as long as you feel it
That energy will never be less
I hope one day, my light becomes so bright
It houses a million,
No, a billion stars like a night sky
I ache to shine and radiate
Like a queen's golden crown and lace
One day, I will be like an irreplaceable painting
Waiting so beautifully in gallery places
The memories of yesterday are replaced
With the colors of today
And, I know that like a coloring book
Patiently filling in the spaces
Makes for the most genuine inspiration
I guess, I am a dreamer, who seems in her mind
Yet, you wouldn't understand a dreamer's space and time
I don't move like everyone else, and I like that just fine
I will be like the Milky Way, so vast and divine
