How I Dance

I strive no more at foolish things

That tear and pierce my soul

For I have dreams within my walls

Just waiting to unfold.

Dreams that somehow carry me

Beyond my circumstance,

Unfurl their wings with majesty

And teach my feet to dance.

Dreams that flex and reach above

The boundaries I have drawn

Dreams that call and challenge me

To come and step beyond.

Oh I have dreams that carry me

Beyond life’s circumstance

Dreams that come to marry me
