I Dream

I dream of flying through the sky,
Grabbing at stars as they pass by
So much wonder
So many ways to turn
All that’s happened I’ve had to earn
The star that shines brightest for me,
I can’t bear my eyes to pry from
For what if tomorrow it has gone and disappeared?
What beauty would there be to see?
I struggle now to turn my face away
To rid my unsteady fears
If this special star truly exists
In more than just a mind’s eye
Then I will surely wake to embrace its light once again
So now I take that heavy leap and dream some more
