Everything we've almost done
Has made us who we are

Dreams not reached, but touched upon
With a tentative finger

In our atmospheres, linger

As a clouded reminder-
not of failed attempts
or obstacles un-approached

But of a dim hope
That not all is lost in a storm
So long as we do not lose ourselves.

Author's Note: I hate dry spells- glad that mine's over.
