poem: deeper

It is somewhere we’ve never been before

That vision many claim can never be ours

Yet, somehow we know it’s there, waiting for us to find it

It is somewhere within us, deeper than the ocean we hope to know


We thought if we came close to it

We would be able to catch its tail end; feel its power

Yet, somehow that was not enough to make us whole

It is somewhere outside of us, farther than the sky we hope to reach


As we cry about our losses and hope for a better tomorrow

Our emotions race, sometimes to the brink of insanity

Yet, somehow we know nothing else matters but this moment

It is somewhere in our spirit, deeper than the love we can’t seem to claim


We crave for the time when we can see the likes of tomorrow

That tomorrow that’s so far away, we didn’t know it existed

Yet, we wait for the inspiration that might come.


It’s here, stronger than all the lives we had before

Sweeter than all the dreams we thought would never come true,

Greater than all the past that has prepared us for tomorrow,

Deeper than all the thoughts that carry us through today.
