My small efforts cling to me
making even simple gestures fade
allowing my inner turmoil out,
to be seen by all of humanity.
Here on the glass paritions
I sense a failure of hopes begin
for in them we have our lives
intertwined amongst favored thoughts.
We prim and press ourselves with delight
found outside our bonds foolishness
created in our own eyes
the passion lays gently to the floor.
And what of dreams made real?
We seek them all of our energies,
allowing us to become vulnerable
to that state of grace we all believe.

Intense words put together to make you stop and think.

Let my words fall first upon deaf ears before a closed mind...

Very intriguing points to ponder, Michael.  Well said.

All writing comes
by the grace of God.

Very interesting write indeed.  "What of dreams made real"?  They are the best dreams of all...

It is a blessing to have wings for words and passion in pen.
