Microsoft


Microsoft!
is it just another
elusive dream?
an irresistible challenge
a safe haven
a place where I could grow
into all that I am
and was ever meant to be
so seemingly impossible
so incessantly driven
that I cannot settle
for any less
only God can open the door
but I am waiting patiently
just outside

Microsoft!
No longer just
an elusive dream,
but on the verge
of reality,
as I walk through
the doors that
God has opened.
Awestruck,
incredulous,
and immensely
grateful.

Elusive Dream

Love is
an elusive dream
that will never happen
to me.

I have loved
and I have been loved
by never by the same person
at the same time.

I am loved only
for what I can be
or do,
not for just
who I am. 

Perhaps I do not need
to be loved
at all.

I would rather dream

Thinking of you
makes me smile
inside.

Dreaming of you
makes me melt
with a strange warmth
that surges through every corner
of my mind
and body.

Until cold Reality
slaps my face,
pushing me back into a world
I am reluctant to leave,
but know I cannot stay.

For this moment,
I would rather think
...and dream.
