My Aspirations

Upon a splendid moon I placed a thought of you Not knowing where you’d rest A notion of likeness to be my vision bright and clear Although my ambitions that may be far fetched In the heart of desire I etched my dreams To be well known from my words and lyrics To be appreciated and genuinely admired As a poet and writer a teller of story For if this desire should be fulfilled I would be recklessly mad with optimism I know now I shall never stop this vision This prayer, this hunger For if I do I shall forget myself completely

to say this is very touching... as you know we all can relate to this piece that you have so perfectly penned. it's taking a while to getting adjusted to your language. but i'm a smart guy i'm beginning to see your art. keep up the good work. and by the way i see great improvement in your work.
