Love Poem: Far Away

Far Away

Why do some dreams stay?
While others fade,
Far far away?

Far from view,
What I dreamed
To be and to do

I wanted to be brave,
To be strong,
Not needing to be saved.

I didn’t want to be,
Hopeless and weak,
Never depend on a “he”

No “Cinderella” story here,
Except maybe I am,
Dependent on him, I fear.

Why do I need a knight
To fight for me all day,
And all my life?

Why do some dreams stay?
While others fade,
Far, far away.
