stored potential

humanity
we have the power
to break the bonds
of gravity
and depravity
to soar among the stars
to thrive in places
we could never survive
to love
when it is beyond reason
to dream
we have this power
this potential
stored within us
release yourself
be bound no longer
let us not be beasts
of the earth
but children of the stars
born upon wings of faith
high and higher

d.s.
