For There Is


Once upon a dream so full of
hopes and tomorrows there came to be
an awakening to who we are now.

As we become that tomorrow it seems
with father time our nights become longer
and the days become shorter.

Yet the mind remains so full of youth,
passion and desires.

Maybe I welcome the longer nights...
sometimes with only me, and sometimes
it does not even bother me.

The outcome after today I do not control,
rather the challenges of hope for others
to realize and live, I can only leave.

For there is and there will always be
A Reason To Believe.
