Torn / Dreams

The sensation

Again

Of walking in two worlds

Duty

Doing what you must

To keep body and soul together

One step forward

Two steps back

Bedraggled, bleary eyed

Numb

What about our dreams

So little time for what’s important

Slap us down

We keep getting back up

Walking down that road

Not giving up

It’s been hard sometimes

Hasn’t it?

But we’re walking together

I worry though

That you have given up

On some of your dreams

Please don’t, my sweet soul

You deserve those dreams

There are moments in the sun

And moments in the rain

But this journey

We have taken it

Together

And those simple moments

A smile

A meal together

A moment of laughter

Make the days sweet
