I Know

I know

In my dreams I see a field

Of a land that’s far away

In a country I have been to

In a place I long to stay

Where my daydreams often wander

Making my pulse race and rise

Everyday I’m closer, closer

To the soil I desire

In my heart I feel a sorrow

That I’ve buried deep below

For the past that I have chosen

And the seeds that I have sown

In my prayers I ask for answers

What to do next, where to go

How to break free from the prison

Where I’ve locked away my soul

In my mind I know my purpose

Though my logic makes me question

Such a reason for my being

Why I feel I need permission

Though this passion burns inside me

Thoughts of leaping leave me waiting

Every moment spent in wondering

Is a moment I am wasting
