We Slowly Floated Away
At night I close my eyes and slowly float away. To far off lands of color and waters clear as day.
I leave my worries far behind and take with me my soul. The others look on in envy at the happisness I've stole.
Oh, this glorious place of life overflows with love and light. I wish I could bring to you this world and hold on to you so tight.
We won't ever have to return to the colorless world of hate. The others would be left behind to face up to their fate.
And we could hold each other forever in this beauty until the end. Our hearts won't have to hurt anymore or listen to truths that bend.
Yet in the morning I open my eyes to a gray that makes them tear. The barred windows are like toothy grins beckoning me to come near.
I cry to myself silently for dreams like that are strong. And they always feel so real no matter how short or long.
Your voice is suddenly in my head. "Close you eyes," you say. So I take heed and close them tight as we slowly float away.
You can vote for it in the arena.
