My code of dreams may not be
My code of life must always be
Love, cherish and honesty.
That I know I must see
And strive to be deep
Here inside of me.

Blend your mind with thoughts of reality, intertwined with dreams. ~ Patrice

My method of approach
Is beyond reproach
As I stagger
To fill the seams
Of a very realistic dream.
May I dip down deep
Within the mound
Of all the thoughts and schemes
I’ve acquired throughout
The travels thereabouts.
In a quest to fulfill
My very realistic dreams.

Light and airy is the life
That comes and goes
Between the strife.
Snugly warm, cozy near
Bringing dreams
To fruition clear.
Make it mine, make it dear
This life I’ve embraced
With mounting fear.
Not knowing truly if
I do believe in a life of joy
Where I can succeed.
