A Bohemian's Soliloquy

I am a man still searching for reasons to live

still looking for the meaning of home

I am a man still facing uncertain future

not knowing where to go and when to go..

I am a stranger to your conventional thoughts

I have no use for society's ideals and expectations

I am trying to live among the crowd yet distant

and forever be alone in my head..

I walk to the beat of my own drum with

the clouds above my head, and the stars above the sky.

I rejoice upon knowing the sun's miracle as I see

visions of heaven in a lover's eyes.

And yet all these are temporary.

In a world of ever changing needs and wants,

of footprints on the sand and castles in the air...

I live for the moment even if the moment is fleeting.

Still it is the the power to dream

when I close my eyes that makes me want

to see what the next day brings ...

it is all I know that's precious

please don't take that away too..

for in my life, I know nothing tangible

than hopes and dreams.
