a dream, is what they have to look like.
far out of my reach and your reach.
inflicting pain like a spike.
a concept you and I both teach.

a hug here.
a smile to a stranger.
too much for us, we fear.
I fight it like a ranger.

why be simple,
if I can complicate it?
smile and show a dimple,
if I can be as extra as a slit?

they matter,
the overrated gestures.
a compliment and little banter,
some love to close the heart's satures.

a simple life,
with the simple things.
all I wish upon those who deserve to strive.
simplicity and prosperity being melodies your heart sings.
