Elucidating Questions

Imagining a world

With words pouring out

Where we were together

But as soon as I realise I’m imagining

The words they don’t come

Like waking up in a dream and realising it’s a dream

I imagine us talking

I imagine us creating

Singing

And this strange hanging around

If only for the last string of hope

That you’d notice

No

That you’d engage

There’s a well inside me

I’ve been tossing wishes in

So full now there is no water

It is no longer a wishing well but a well of wishes

Perhaps I used them all up without thinking

Trying to ride fate

And faith

In what, I don’t know

I truly believed you’d come running

Sometimes I feel like I’ll win

When the game ended years ago

Inside this soul of mine

Untouched

Nature threw in a little bit of that

I’m ablaze with it

This is just the tip of the iceberg

So to say

The world doesn’t know my potential and doesn’t want to know it

But recently,

From within

I want to know my true potential

I will surpass you

Just like I surpassed the others
