Dreaming to much for our world?

by Tangible heartache   Sep 15, 2008


Would you take my hand?
And run away with me?
Could we go to a place?
Where it's all beauty we see?

Where dreams come true,
And everything's all right,
Where no one's hurt,
Or crying all night,

Hope lit up in everyone's eyes,
Smiles broad upon there's faces,
Where we are all one world,
But not divided by races,

Friends with no enemies,
Where its smiles and laughs,
Somewhere you can love who you want,
And live your life with your other half,

A world with no one being hurt,
Or pretending who they are,
Where you can reach for your dreams,
No matter how big, or how far,

Does that place even exist?
Is that world even real?
How sad it is to be here,
And feel the pain we feel,

Our world, such a dangerous place,
Wars, drugs and fights,
Just everywhere we go, can't get enough,
Murders, and deaths throughout the night,

Why can't we just live life peacefully?
Was it really supposed to be this way?
How can we live our life like this?
And have danger in our lives every day?

Can I be the only one?
Who sees it the way I see,
Am I supposed to change it?
Or just leave it be?

I guess dreaming is a little too much,
I just have to watch our world crumble before our eyes,
Watch it fall away, see our generation die,
But I just can't do that though, I just want us to live our lives.

    Wow, Makalah, this is very very beautiful, you know that? I agree with you in every aspect. Why can't life be simple and peaceful? Why is there always someone making it a bad place... but that is, mostly because humans are prideful people. they believe they are right and when everyone has different opinions, I suppose that is when the world becomes dark.

    this was a very magical poem...
    the beginning was very pretty and light and then yougot the the truth towards the end.
    very great writing.
    i love this. :)
