Life.

I'm a person who wants to do so much, but doesn't know how too go about it.

There's so many things to say, but I don't know how to say them. 

So many things to believe,that I want to believe, but I struggle with believing them.

There are so many stumbling stones in the path, I slow to a crawl to try to miss them, but I fall anyhow.

Tears I want to shed, but it's never the right time to cry.

Words I want to live by, I often forget them.

Songs I want to sing, but choke up when I try.

There are stages I want to stand on, but I get overwhelmed by stage fright.

So many jokes to tell, to shy to tell them.

So many people I want to meet, but I don't know how to talk.

Stories I want to write, some never get finished.

I want to laugh, but it's to serious a time.

I want to yell and play like a kid, but I'm to big for that.

Places to see, I can't afford to go.

Pictures I want to take, I always miss the best moment to capture.

There are things I want to make, but I don't have the right materials.

Time I want to spend alone, I'm always needed for something.

Time I want to spend with others, they're to busy that day.

I want to be secure and happy, but insecurity and worry often take over.

I want to feel safe, but I feel in danger.

Words I've said that I regret, I'm to ashamed to ask forgiveness.

Mistakes I've made, I'm forgiving but I can't forget.

head in the stars

i'm just a girl, her head in the stars waiting, hoping, dreaming. 

shoot for the moon and if you miss you land among the stars.

those in history did the same, they each had a dream to fulfill.

some athletes have a dream to fly or run or swim. 

some artists dream to be the next Picasso or Van Gogh.

i have a dream to travel and sing and write.

whats the difference between them and i?

a different time, subject, place, era divides us 

but we are all human, equal and precious.

i'm learning and believing, praying and laughing.

i'm just a girl with her head in the clouds hoping, waiting, dreaming.
