Like a Cloud
An original poem written with dreams in mind. Open your perspective to reach your goals!
Hey readers! I wrote this piece to motivate looking at even the smallest things for some motivation for personal goals. Sometimes, we all get caught up in looking at detailed plans over taking a risk. I am not saying don't plan (I feel best when goals are planned!), but don't forget to give yourself the opportunity to take a different approach with things. You never know what more inspiration can be uncovered. As always, go live out your dreams! Much love.
I saw a cloud in the sky,
And I wondered, 'how freely they slide'
The expanse of this one was noticeably large
As it smoothly glided across the earth's dome
That cloud moved so effortlessly on it's own
Without worry someone wouldn't leave it alone
I so badly wished to be as lazily unrestricted
As that cloud, seeing all there was to see
Those days, I felt like the things I wanted
Fell out of my grasp, being left and forgotten
The places I wanted to see and go to
Where all but ignored and undefined
Again and again, I tried to find new perspectives
Hoping, one day, I could get the impression
That, like a cloud, I could see all there was
And be all that I sought to
'How much does a cloud see in a day?'
I questioned out loud
Yet, a thought occurred to me on how:
I can regain those dreams again
If I truly believe I can achieve it
Though a cloud's journey is different
I began to see that there was no limit
To how much I needed to have faith in myself
And where I wanted to go
For I can do anything
If my mind is as opened
As the sky above me
My dreams can transform into anything
As the clouds drifting along in the breeze
All it takes it a little push within me
Who knows what can be propelled just by that
However, not giving myself the chance
Keeps me restricted and closed in
I knew that if I thought of that cloud
I, too, could accomplish any possibility
That cloud inspired the fearlessness
Blooming inside of me
