More and more audacious dreams are presenting themselves to me.
This is mostly coming through writing and presenting and being braver about how those are shared and offered to the world.
I am walking in my own power
in a multitude of ways
in faith
in love
in hope for all that can come later.
All of this seems like it can come
from elsewhere
And then there was this exploration of what Elsewhere:
Sometimes I imagine a daring escape
To take me away from the world as I know it
As far away as I can get
while still possessing a memory of what matters
Sometimes I imagine a way out
Somewhere only the best people know about
And where I can only be found if I want to be
By the people who exhibit care
Sometimes I daydream out my plans of how I will leave
Already feeling nostalgic for what I haven’t left behind yet
And knowing it is the right thing for me
One thing I never can figure out is
Will this place be everything I imagine?
Or will it be another version of the lies we tell ourselves now?
There is only one way to find out
I have to leave
Even if only in the mind
When I arrive please let me find
A place where
The dew glistens on the grass as the sun rises
Where I can hear the soft crunch of snow as I carefully make my own footsteps
A pioneer in a wide field
Where I can feel the sun-warmed sand,
a bed to lay in after building an incredible castle
Where I can touch a cool pool I then dive into
So I can feel the way twilight shines into my soul
Warming me up from the inside and showing possibilities from all angles
Where I hear the laughter of those I love
So I go
And wonder if I will meet other Thoughts along the way
Or if I am the only one to have made the Great Escape?
