Today I dared to let my self dream,
That the world would one day open again.
That the locks will open and the walls will fall,
The doors will fly open and reunite us all.
I dared to imagine the warmth of a cuddle,
A group of my friends all locked in a huddle.
I felt all the heartbeats drumming with mine,
I heard all the laughter, I tasted the wine.
I thought of the feelings I've missed for so long,
The room full of music, United by song.
The freedom to roam, to plan and to meet,
To hold someone's hand. To meet, to greet.
Just for a moment, I dared to dream of,
The flights I would board, to the places I love.
The moment those eyes would meet mine at the gate,
That feeling of joy after so long a wait.
Today I dared to let myself dream,
That the life we once had will happen again.
That we'd no longer fear the danger in the air,
That our lives would not depend on such care.
They say that we shouldn't wish life away,
But it's hard, my friend, when faced with a day,
So long in blank hours and so wiped of laughter,
It's tempting to drift away to thereafter.
So yes, I dared to dream just a while,
Of life coming back, it brought me a smile.
One day, I know, this will be in the past,
And hugs, again, will be free at last.
Just saw this and it brought a tear to my eye...
Written by Donna Ashworth I believe.
I thought it was beautiful and had to share
