DREAM


I dream the Northern Lights
And
Live the frozen sunsets where
The wastelands of my heart
Become
The future of my soul.
 

I choose the horizon
For my destination,
Ever receding
Never closer
 

My vision
My prison.
I yearn for flight
Above - beyond
The aching slowness
Of my journey.
 

I've walked the paths of glaciers,
Seen the conquests of many heroes,
Looked into the caverns of my soul,
And found only the skeletons
of my dreams
