there is something else 

in the distance

yes, i see it

seems like i am far off

but it’s only a mental trick

a delusion

and i’m not buying it

partially because i can’t afford to

in the distance

is a vision of a bolder person

bright and shining

dynamic

fluid

graceful

and i am that person now

and then

and will be

will become even more

than what i am now
