By sharing my writing (Poetry in particular), a life long dream, I hope to inspire others to go after their dreams and goals.

The Longest Journey

The Longest Journey
By Valerie Maldonado

We are all traveling
Down roads we’ve never been
Over uncharted ground
Using compasses within
Stumbling in the darkness
Finding footing in the sun
An invisible wind of illness
Threatens to rain upon
🌧 🌧 🌧 🌧 🌧 🌧 🌧 
Those we hold so dear
😷 
As we cover our mouths
We use our eyes and ears
To love and be loved
Until our hands can be near
The longest journey, ever
We search for a way home
Finding inspiration and hope
On this map of the unknown
We are all traveling as one
As socially distant we must be
Charting new territories
You, Mother Earth, and me
📷by me
