The world is just one of those places
That people take for granted.
They go around in their stories
Not knowing how many lives can be touched.
If people would just listen
To the smallest plee for help,
I'm sure sympathy would be a trend.
But they do not listen. Imagination is shunned.
Creativity is torn down.
Art is derated.
And for what?
More people to see the world for how it is?
No thank you.
I'd rather live in my fantasy worlds.
And so I'm picking up the paint brush,
But this time,
I'm painting with words.
