Inspired by You

You saw the best in me

Things I still am yet to see

In my memory they will stay

Till I can one day say

I am what you said I would be.

Words fail to describe you

Challenges don’t keep you down

Burn them down you do

Burn them down, to the world of the dead.

I dream of you with me someday

Someplace far, someplace away

From the demons of past and demons of now

To slumber with you beside

And arise to see you so tender and calm.

Again I fear that will be just another

Dream of mine, like many other

Dream and plan and see and cram

My head with endless possibility

All such dreams never come to life

You and I both share that connection

What we dream is hardly ever to be

Dreams that fail to come to life.

Every night I hope and pray

Let this dream be a clip from the future

However distant, however far

I only want to be with you.

I’ve decided to give up my past

To forget all the wrong that I’ve done

Now I strive to what I know I can be

For now I have you, my inspiration

My guardian angel, my heart’s delight

I will do what I do best.

Write more, I will from now

For you lift all the cages around me

A silent prayer, a simple thought

Is all I want from you now.

All these words are you

All these thoughts are you

I wish I could inspire others, you used to say

Well girl, here you go, inspired by you.
