We’ve all had this dream
We all sort of remember
Some reach for it still, while others choose to surrender
You know, the one with all of the feelings you wish you knew how to describe?
The one you think about all the time
It feels similar and so afflicting, i know it, believe
You can’t go a day without choking away the need to grieve
A memory you can almost recall
A faint feeling you had last fall
Nearly on the tip of your tongue, it spins
You just need to catch it before the other unbearable loop begins
It’s a slippery slope going to the edge of your imagination
But it’s so worth it, you betcha
Feeling pride for the ride you had to endure
The presence of life well lived right as you go through that door
The memories come rushing in for a hug
You feel like the rest was just a myth or a strange system bug
Finally, feel you’re home for the long run
Knowing that you fully belong now.
