Glitter has always been prominent in my life.
Little sparkles scatter throughout the air,
Imperfectly spreading, like my dreams and aspirations.
Throughout time, most vanish from existence.
They leave without a trace.
Every so often, though, they appear,
Refilling my life with hopes, shining so bright, just like glitter.
