The Cross I Bear



My life would be so grateful if I could hold my dreams in my hands, For me this is not a hobby, but the passion that fuels my plans.

Beyond the seasons, beyond the oceans and the seas, Beyond the mountain ranges, beyond the skies and the trees, Beyond the world we know, beyond the galaxies we see, Lies my passion, my dream, my destiny.

It’s a force that drives me, a fire that fuels me, A love that inspires me, a vision that moves me. It’s a journey that I’m on, a path that I’m carving, A dream that I’m chasing, a destiny that I’m shaping.

It’s a forbidden love, a passion that’s rare, A gift that I cherish, a cross that I bear. It’s a part of who I am, a soul that I share, A story that I’m writing, a legacy that I’ll leave.
