Chasing a dream that was never mine. Wanting to be more. I crawled all this while because I forgot how to walk. But today I took my first steps.

The moon gazed at me, the man within its rock is becoming faceless and yet he takes a moment to cry for me. For this small piece of the world, as if I'm something worth crying for. But truthfully, I'm merely a child, chasing a forgotten dream.

The moon speaks in whispers, but not so much as the stars. I haven't seen the stars for months now. I hope to one day witness a full sky of them, it's one of my only hopes for myself. To be overwhelmed by the vast galaxy beyond us. To be left breathless for a moment in this life.

Maybe chasing this neglected dream will allow me to get closer to all of the beauty beyond us. At least, I sure hope so.
