Four Letters

four letters
to form a word,
all different,
all equal -
though small -
missing even one
destroys the power
of the word;

four letters
can change the world,
can fill us up,
can break us apart,
can bring us together,
can keep us moving on,

four letters
essential to this life -
the root of existence -

four letters,
you must feel;

four letters,
you must give to the world;

four letters,
nothing apart,
everything together;

four simple letters:

Dream Chaser

why fear
the blood of your labors
when you work towards your dreams;
what can hurt you there?

opinion is a stiff headwind
crashing against a rock
of your construction -

you have chased the dream,
you have journeyed,
you have bled;

the words of others
cannot harm the pursuit;
we must dream

we must chase what we believe,
no matter the headwinds,
we must live
