Midwestern Dreams

Stars
too scattered
to wish upon
bluer than ocean and sky
she longed for dreams
to dance into reality
her ink clotted
creativity hit concrete
the scribe
subscribe to "someday"
but found herself wondering "when"
glazing out the window
she saw herself reflected in the moon
a loner
a dreamer
dreams where a veil of fog
before her eyes
the brightest flame
the scribe
subscribe to "someday"
wondering "when"
midwestern dreams
would fill her sky
