Me and My Imagination

I imagine life would be easy,
Easy to find jobs,
Easy to find a boyfriend,
Easy to find things to make me happy,
Easy to help others,
Easy to forget bad memories,
Easy to remember good happenings,
Easy to forgive people who hurt me.

I imagine my life is good.
I imagine I have a great job.
I imagine I have a sweet and kind boyfriend.
I imagine I can buy things right away.
I imagine I help less-fortunate people.
I imagine I have a life free from haunting sad memories.
I imagine I only think happy thoughts and situations.
I imagine I have a forgiving heart.

I imagine things all the time,
Without thinking the reality.
I choose to live in illusion,
I wanna live a happy life.
Everytime I wake up,
I face the real cruel world.
Nothing is easy to acquire,
You need to work hard for it.
