Dandelion Fluffs...



When I want to cry but the tears wont come
When I want someone to love yet remain all alone
When I want to move forward but stay at a standstill
When I reach for the stars and my dreams go unfulfilled
When I try. . .And I try (It seems more than enough)
And I'm caught in a whirlwind;A blind mans bluff
Still my arms stay out stretched to their furthest reach
Though the Wind tries to shake me - I cling like a leech
To hope(hopeless hope?)Or so it does seem
That one day I'll succeed - I'll have all my dreams
Just the way I dreamt them to be
Like a bird in flight soaring high and carefree. . .
Though I may appear stagnant - waters that won't flow
My quest - to find Utopia (Does it exist? I have to know!
Maybe there, Dandelion Fluffs when wished upon will fly
To that place I can't seem to reach way up somewhere high
Maybe there I'll find happiness and someone to love me true
There I'll find peace of mind and someone to hold on to. . .
So far looking under clover leaves I've found no silver nor gold
But this determined spirit does believe the sun will melt the snow!
