Escape into you.

 Imagine living a life where all you envision is escape.
The only thing that grounds you is that one dream that feels real.
The one you’ll never wake up from.
The one that is the most daunting, especially once said aloud.
I’m scared.
And I think you are too.
Scared to see the other side of that mountain we’ve been pushing against for so long.
We are not defined by our adversity but reminded of the magnitude of who we truly are, enabling us to overcome it. 
Obstacles that we couldn’t have imagined on our wildest day.
Didn’t we get through that one tough year that we thought would never end?
Didn’t we find companions after years of feeling alone and forgotten?
Didn’t we realize we’ve always had it all after we stop telling ourselves that we are nothing?
We did.
And I believe that counts for something.
In fact, it is everything.
We overcame it, scared but determined. 
Foot after the other, planted upon the residual doubts and fears from those that walked the path before us.
You are not alone.
You never were.
And you never will be.
Your dreams are as real as your heartbeat.
They all move through you.

Ain’t that something?
