I know that many things in my life are not free
Sometimes visions aren’t always what they seem
But the one thing I know, that is abundant in me
This fire deep inside, to keep chasing my dreams!

Galaxies full of wondrous delight
Tis a small child’s endless dream
To spin with celestial floating orbs
In such a beautiful astral scene
Even his shadow’s along for the fun
Still, he’s far away from the skies
With colors igniting his imagination
There’s a spark, a gleam, in his eyes
So fascinated, by the universe above
He stops, for a moment, to stare
Wondering what it is that he’ll need
To explore these worlds, up there

With each key he played, the monster, alive
Unaware was he, as he continued his song
Though he felt a presence, he could not decide
What it was he had been feeling, all along
Through the trees, moonbeams danced
It was though they could hear every note
The stars came down, wondering, perchance
If his playing was what kept them afloat
His life, in a book, his fantasies, played
As time passed by, the pages yellowed
He took in stride, what his mind displayed
All those nightmares, had truly mellowed
So he played, and he played, each note his own
Not caring what was happening around him
He knew from the start, this king on his throne
That his dreams would always surround him

Nothing was working, frustration set in
I should start over, but where to begin?
Jumbled up messes, stuck in my head
Maybe it’s time I take a break, but instead
I continue to trudge, through this mess
No cause for alarm, it’s probably stress
Step away from the keyboard, back again
To many words are stuck tight from within
Hands on the keys, glazed eyes in a dream
I’m pretty sure, you just heard me scream!
Leave the office, go find something to eat
Perhaps I can fuel the verses with sweets
No, that will never work, they’re diabetic
This is what happens when I am frenetic
Try to calm down, take it one at a time
But the words, continue to play, a mime
They move about, but never do they speak
It’s more like they’re playing hide and seek
Okay, that’s enough, for now, they can win
I should start over, but where to begin?

Tis but a dream that wakes my mind
And feeds my soul with visions kind
That whirls the colors in my head
Breathes new life, to them, instead
But oh the mysteries it does reveal
When in my heart, these feelings, real
Draw me away from reality’s door
To find me, forever, wanting more
And the more I find, as I journey, yon
Reminds me to venture, on and on
