I live
in fits and starts
my life in stolen moments
My Day to day life
Mechanically
Automatically
Almost thoughtlessly
But whenever I can find
Moments
Seconds
Heartbeats
Stolen away from
The monotony world
I dare to dream my dream
In stolen moment
Hidden from
Prying eyes
Judgmental stares
The glare of the overhead watchers
I sneak
Pen to paper
Voice to song
Heart to heaven
My spirit lives
The secret dream
One more second
Closer to me
