Dreams & Day Flights

It hurts me to say
To admit to myself 
That often even I 
Don't know what I mean
Don't know what my thoughts are telling me 
Don't know what to make 
Of all my dreams and day flights 
I wish I knew just what 
All my messages were saying 
Telling me directly 
But all I know is the few words and lines 
That throw themselves at me 
That force me to bite 
And I wish I was more 
And I wish I could absorb 
All that is around me 
All that is being said 
But all I can do is listen 
Sharpen my ears and hope
That my eyes and cells are grasping 
More than even I know 
I hope my visions 
My past and present collections 
Of thoughts, and truths 
Are able to emerge from me 
In ways even I know not 
And I hope one day
Far beyond the one from now 
I'm able to rock into the truth I've settled in 
And understand 
Know and feel 
All that was said and seen.
