Occasionally I find myself lost
Lost within those shadows of my time
Imagining what might have been
What will be
What could be
Mine

Recalling fond memories
Of days gone by
Weeks months years
Time spent

Dreaming of tomorrow
I am captivated with
But not bound by
The essence of time

A big world exists
Just beyond my grasp
Places to travel to
Sights to see
A desire to expand
This craving inside of me

For now I’ll dream
And read of far off places
Of exotic foods sweet to the taste
Roads un-traveled
Others well worn
Romantic shores
On which to roam

As darkness dissipates
And shadows fade away
Familiar sounds greet me
The echoes of life beckon

For now
I am content with reality
In this place I call home
