I WILL NOT LOOK AWAY

I saw a dream today

A dream in infancy

Birthed by a dream lived fully...

It was beautiful

Intoxicating

I couldn't look away...

It was burning but not consumed

Controlled but wild

Afraid but fearless....

It was vulnerable

But it was unstoppable

I couldn't look away...

I had meet dreams before

They were untamed

They were beyond expectation

They were hard to handle

They made me uncomfortable

I looked away...

But they pursed me relentlessly

I tried to hide like in the garden

But they knew where I was, always...

They screamed in my fears

They whispered in my doubts

They broke the Unbreakable grip...

I tried to extinguish the fire with comfort

I tried to replace the burn with accomplishment.

But I could not look away...

I saw a dream today

A dream that lives

A dream that is anything but normal

It is beautiful

Intoxicating

I WILL NOT LOOK AWAY!!!
