I move them aside as I move forward
stepping stones before me in my mind
feeling so very far to go
I close my eyes and for a moment
disappear
and I am there.
Moving mountains that stand before
like monoliths with crossed arms
saying you cannot go here
you will never get past
yet through shades of beautiful blue
I drift high above you
and lifting off
fly free to the sky
if only in my mind
for just a moment
I know this will be truth
for I am strong and sturdy
and can carry the weight of thousand dreams
as I journey forward
though tired I amble on,
knowing the journey
each day has just begun.
