Dream Chaser

why fear
the blood of your labors
when you work towards your dreams;
what can hurt you there?

opinion is a stiff headwind
crashing against a rock
of your construction -

you have chased the dream,
you have journeyed,
you have bled;

the words of others
cannot harm the pursuit;
we must dream

we must chase what we believe,
no matter the headwinds,
we must live

The Job

unfulfilled, uninspired - 
a subject to aimless leadership -
feeling bereft of 'enough,'
not knowing - 
not being challenged -
to discover what will fill that void,
unsure of my wants,
secure in my needs,
certain I am missing
a vital puzzle piece of happiness;

maybe this is it,
maybe this is life,
maybe this is just what work is,
I still want to believe
it is something more
