Be My Sky
~~~
If I told you my dreams,
would you laugh at what they are?
For, to many it would seem,
I follow a wayward star.
~~~
Or can you see as I do,
the future not cast in stone?
Like the sun in sky true blue,
am I left to rise alone?
~~~
These unshared things,
are like a secluded beach.
And my shiny brass ring,
seems so hard to reach.
~~~
I’d love to have a hand to hold,
as I find my way down life’s road.
But if my hopes seem to bold,
then nothing tried is nothing owed.
~~~
You don’t have to think I’ll make it,
just believe that I should try.
If dreams are to be forfeit,
then I am the wrong guy.
~~~
So, with you or without you,
I must continue as I roam.
If to myself I must be true,
my dreams must find their home.
~~~
But if you see my silly dreams,
as something that must be done,
travel this wayward road with me,
be the sky to my rising sun!
