Wishing It Was Real

Close your eyes, what do you see?
have you discovered your sanctuary?
the place where you heart has been calling to,
the place where you know no harm can occur.
What does it take to see this place?
A blink of the eye, a short pause of your oh-so-busy day?
your mind is a muscle; exercise it and it will strengthen,
strengthen it so that you can remain here longer.

A place where you can walk upon crystal water,
a place where you can gracefully dance in the air;
Violet clouds float over me as I lay in my field,
my field of see-green lily's and silver roses;
butterflies flutter over me and leave trails of glitter,
no need for wishing it was real; just close your eyes and soar.

When your school grades depress you and your parents yell,
when spiteful people at school throw words and shout sticks and stones,
when the light seems to fade away and the shadows take over,
just sink into your clouded world and drift.
More mystical words of magic and heaven,
more creatures of all textures and powers beyond existence,
Knights and Pirates whisking you away into their lifestyles,
no need for wishing it was real; just close your eyes and soar.

~Go ahead and wish it was real, but all you need to do is close your eyes, and your safety net is there. Dream, and live, together.~
