Freedom

Imagination

To many it's just a word
To others its freedom

Does it just come in dream?
Or does it come in bursts of ideas?

To me
Imagination is not what you
See
It's another reality which is given to few

My kingdom is with my friends
As we run around with smiles
Knowing it doesn't just end
Cause we still have miles to go

Where I'm accepted for me
And not for my mask
Where judgement isn't what you see
It's by what you ask

Where sunsets and sunrises are endless and I never have to be sad
No one is
A place that I miss every second of the day because I live in reality

A place with hateful word
And fears
A place with mutes and no one is heard
And all you see are tears

Tears
Fake people

Victims
Hunters

Lies
Lies
And more
Lies

In my kingdom
I don't have a fake laugh
Because I have freedom
And I don't have to be half
Of me

Where everyone is heard
And you are accepted
Where you are respected
And are as free as a bird

Reality kills your imagination
It's the rebuttable that always somehow wins
Because not everyone has imagination
All they see is
Black
And
White

This
Or
That

And it's annoying
It's sad
It's scary
It's painful

And I want out of reality
I want to go to a place of freedom
A place to call home
And I can only visit in my dreams
I can only visit in my happiness

I can only see bits and pieces with my friends
With scrapes of hope
And with some ray of caring somehow

It's there in a second and gone in a flash

Reality

Pain
Fears
Lies
And nothing

Imagination

Joy
Laughter
Hope
Love
And truth

Two very different places
And yet we live in both

We're a slave to society
We're machines to money
We're prisoners of the people
We're trapped in tricks

And imagination is so far
My freedom is almost gone
I feel like I'm behind bars
And that I have to say so long

Reality makes me lose my sanity
As I fall into a dark place
But find a light
Which is slowly growing dim

I'm sorry if this is sad
But it's true
Reality can drive you mad
But I hope you find your hope before you do
