LIKE A VAPOR
By LIMITLESS

It was in my hands….

I was so close…,

…I held it, felt it, it was as tangible as cold steal in hand;

Tight knit in grip speaking to me like a branded strap on wrist.

I remember speaking, “I need this.”

This place where dreams rest in the arms of hope;

A place where Soul speaks liberties quotes-

I was so close to what I paid for in one million drops of blood,

Two billion pints of sweat,

& two trillion buckets of tears–

I gave EVERYTHING FOR MY DREAM…,

EVERY-THING…

… I was so close-

It was in my hands….
