Growing
Dena Eastman
Lonely cries
through distant skies
a dreamless night
a condor's flight
children laughing
in the light.
Quiet screams
in sleepless dreams
empty years
grown-up fears
try to listen
through your tears.
Sunlit dawn
freedom gone
a secret told
engraved in gold
inside you'll find
a hand to hold.
Dreamy dusk
dirty lust
different ways
everlasting days
the summer's dissolve
in an eerie haze.
Do not forget
your last regret
it will remain
your greatest pain
always remember
to dance in the rain.
Ice cream to lick
a rose to pick
new souls lie
in the sky
if only we
could watch them fly.
