I’ll learn

I can not sleep inside the fear

I need the joy of peaceful dreams

Of a world complete and beautiful

No longer tearing at the seams

I have to turn my back on darkness

Though it inspires me to write

I’ll learn to find my inspiration

In this all-embracing light

There is adventure in the air

And I am anxious to begin

Accept the past, but walk away

Embrace the new life closing in

I’m quitting company with shadows

They make the world seem way too small

There’s nothing wrong with chasing dreams

To choose your path and have it all

    Absolutly right. :) I agree with you, there´s nothing wrong
    with chasing dreams, we´re made to do that.

    “No longer tearing at the seams I have to turn my back on
    darkness Though it inspires me to write I’ll learn to find my
    inspiration In this all-embracing light” I LOVE this poem so much.
    I always find myself struggling with the darkness when I write. I
    love this…
