Wherever

My dreams roll on silvery wings

In the sky, I stand afraid

Staring up as everyone stands to go

Caught where so much submission has been laid

As the words and conversations disappear

I feel my soul start to tip

I try to hold everyone at arms length

But every once in a while I slip

All that runs through my head is to wander

Aimlessly fall wherever fate wishes to drop me

I hope of ambition, but nothing comes

I hope that its time, that someone caught me.

I hear footsteps

The last and the valient nod and leave

Off to more signifigant adventures

My own purpose and discovery I wait to retrieve

Courage and strength, are just words

At least here, where the bravest and strongest crumble

The place of your weakest hope and most prominent fears

Not one spirit can hope to keep its self from a stumble

Its only a dream, I tell myself

Perhaps really more of a nightmare

I can't move and I'm alone

Everything gives me such a blank stare

Its dark

Its cold

Others wait

But I do as I'm told

What other point is there for me?

If I'm forced to go there anyway?

Why fight back

When I know everyone will just be pushed away?

I find it amazing how

Every time I believe the same thing

That its different that their different

Brought down to a single wing

I let it go

Let them take me to drift, wherever

Forget my notions of escape, of beginning

Let them take me to drift, forever
