Moss-covered bricks
Lined up beneath my feet.
Memories of Amsterdam,
Walking again down my street.
Dull scents in the air
Wafting through my brain
This I remember so well,
Once a dream, but no longer in strain.
I recall a time, I had earnestly sought
A role which I am now immersed.
Fulfillment is stronger than dreams of a child
But tell how glory can quench such thirst...
Of night-born visions and fantasy worlds,
Of youth, and aspirations so high.
Can reality offer a gift so rich
To elicit a kiss of the sky?
And can a kiss truly satisfy desires
Of a dream, of a child's obsess
With a role so profound, so complete, so inspired?
Yes, I can finally confess.
theres that innocence again
This was a lovely read...
