Shattered Dreams
by
Kathryn Charak
I had great ambitions,
wonderful hopes
unbreakable dreams.
Now
I am lost in myself
in that vision of dreams,
burst into flames,
ripped at the seams.
The haze is so thick I can barely see through.
Wondering why
Wondering how
Looking for you.
I see within myself
that I may not survive.
The agonizing pain and endless fear
tear through my body
in its entirety
while summoning my soul
like flowers to the rain.
When I awake
everything is clearer.
I can see the colors of life fade
and everything turn white.
If this is Heaven
and I have arrived,
then why am I
still full of fear
