A poem about imagining a much better world than the one we live in
Close your eyes

Let the darkness lead you to the light

Moments pass and before you know it

Your living in your head

Darkness erased, imagination sketched

Look around

You like what you see

All that pain you keep in a cage

It's finally free

All that pain you thought was so ugly

It's now beauty just waiting to be seen

The scars written all over your skin

You wear them with pride and joy

There's no doubt in who you are

No, not anymore

The everlasting game you play of hide and seek

It's finally over

No more hiding from yourself

No more seeking to be understood

All your questions passing you by

You just don't care

Walking out your door

Leaving your prsion and welcoming yourself to the world of souls

Wearing that smile you were sure did not exist

Greeting soul by soul happily

Open arms for your enemies

Your enemies are bloomed flowers now

Not lifeless weeds you crave to be picked

They are truly beautiful

Your in love with their beauty

Completely ignoring their master plans of misery

Your heart is gold

Not infected and cold

No worry in the world, no fear

Breaking free of all your man-made chains

The sun greets you warm

The green trees hug you close

The fresh air crawling into every pore

You take a deep breath

And in that moment

The beaming sun burns you deep

The brown treets let go and leave you all alone

Thr air blows you to your knees

And it's then that you realise

You've opened your eyes...
