Dreams of Flying

Dreams of flying, softly chasing

Round my head ever pacing

Voices lifted, if only screaming

For redemption never given

Hearts that hide behind blue eyes

Weep for wrongs, they’ll never do

In a world where black and white

Are used to hide the luminescence

Of every color ever given

To every rainbow cried by heaven

The transcendental meditations

On human kind’s every notion

To learn what makes greatness fall

And whispered secrets come alive

When lies are right instead wrong

And forever only lasts so long

When justice served, serves no purpose

Save to fuel sick schadenfreude

Can three words make a difference

Be they “I love you”

…Or “Leave me be”
