I Can Only Dream Poem by James Darwin Smith II

So many empty miles between us
Ghosting through the voids
Empty highways
Nomadic implored
Silence on the other end
Searching for light
To brighten these cold darkening woes


This mind it travels on
From cold
To warm seas
So much unknown
If only everything
Was revealed to me


But do I really want to know?
So much pain could waiting for me


Am I unqualified for these dreams?
Would not be the first time


So many empty miles between us
Haunting voids of uncertainty


There are no directions at this time


Nomadic thoughts
In high speed overdrive
Muted dead ends
Searching for answers
Is there a destination
Awaiting me?


Perhaps I forgot how to reach out
Beyond this comfort zone
Of protruding thoughts


Perhaps it is up to me
To dream bigger
Than I have ever dreamed


Will I ever be good enough?


Rejection, Redundancies
The very things
That have destroyed me


But I must be brave
Because there is only up
And far away


For love, I will never give up
As hope and faith
Is all I need

There are beautiful miles between us
I could only imagine the paradise
That awaits me


Gypsy Love
You are my dream of dreams

Here I am
Stronger than I have ever been before

These arms open
Let us embrace
And never let go

May the miles unite
In the heart of euphoria
Where the warmth shall guide us home

Fate, you are the map to my love
Guide me all the way home

I am a lover of sacred form

May this spirit find
Where it needs to go

She is my love
And I will always battle
To prove myself
Through pain and pleasure
As my dedication for her
Will always continue to grow


She is my all and so much more

She is so beautiful

Traveling on and never letting go

May the miles be filled with beautiful dreams

Look within
There is so much more within me

My gypsy lover
Will you close the distance with me?


I can only dream
