    new poem


    Five years, heart and soul
    built my world—
    sciences, pharmacology,
    anything that would get me
    my dream.
    Five years, flying by, but now?
    Now, I shatter them.
    Superfluous, unneeded.
    I have a new dream now.
    Good at both, but only one
    doesn’t crush my heart.
    I want to unfurl myself
    from my self-made box
    and stretch my wings.
    I want to fly
    and see
    and do.
    My new path stretches before me—
    daunting, taunting,
    making me want things
    I’ve never dreamed of before.
    As one dream ends,
    another begins.
    And so, I spread my wings
    and jump,
    hoping this time
    my wings will let me soar.


    I dunno if I've talked about this, but I was nominated for Poet of the Year. However, since I can't go to the convention, I'm not eligable for any of the prizes. They will read my poem at the convention in my stead and send me the awards I have already won for a mere $169 plus s&h. ::snorts::

    Anyway, new poem. Yeah.
