Worlds Unattainable

I sit here with thoughts and worlds unattainable

With something pulling at me.

Dreams of places I’ve never been,

Wants I felt once but can no longer have.

Reaching out I can touch nothing,

Holding on, I can find no grip strong enough

The wind that blows through my mind

Does not comfort me.

And forever I shall stay lost.

Each note that plays falls on my ear,

As a cry for loves lost.

I hunger for what I can not have,

and in each and every moment that passes

My mind still fights my heart.

There, is the truth that holds me strong!

The battle will rage for all my life,

and I find that, that is not the comfort to which

I wish to live, though I am caught in this life.

There too I look for an escape.

This prison which The Everlasting has placed me,

I only hunger to find the brighter side.

Where?  Even though caged,

I might hold onto a sparkle of happiness.

A chance to know the truth in the words of another,

In the heart of another

With each new struggle I can live because I know no other

And I know that in this world

There was once a glimmer of happiness.
