I’ve sculpted my story in time
For all those eventful years never to return
Isn’t it beautiful that I’m still composed of dreams?
Those that gently wipe my tears and drive away my fears
I drown my sighs and laments in the rivers of belief 
For I’m a finite reflection of an Infinite Mind

A voice within me gently preaches
To reflect with gratitude the myriad blessings
Against the elusive dance of fate that left many a soul guessing 
In the bygone years of life’s enigmatic tales
Inflamed by the spark of the Breath of Life
Slow but sure I climb the mountains of life

A whispering wind from the future greets me on the way
Warns of the thin air higher and the hunger of the abyss below
Caresses my face and searches my eyes for a perseverant glow 
A sublime prayer rises from the depths of my soul in the language of the wind
I’m a prisoner of hope and my way is forever upward and forever forward
I never stop trying and losing yet rising and growing for I’m the prince of dreams
