Poem: Thinking about Unfulfilled Dreams

Time seems to stand still

As she sits on the swing by the lake

And sways in rhythm with the wind

Thinking about the promises she made to herself

To go out into the scary unknown

And pursue the passion that lies within

She wonders if her unfulfilled dreams

Will ever become more than just desires

And if the limits she set for herself

Will ever be lifted from her mind

Giving her the confidence to go past the horizon

And explore the endless possibilities that await
