you are wise-
beyond your words
you understand the world is seen
in only the way we wish to see it
something many will never learn.
you entangle yourself in a web of overthinking-
until you have realized there is no spider
there is no spider.
there is no word for not knowing what words to use
a plague that befuddles us all
the cloud is beautiful though-
and the day it becomes opaque will be a sad day.
Unrealistic is a mean word
meant to taunt you, bring you down
stay here, in reality, but let your dreams carry you
because the world around the fire is a dark place (except for the moon)
you must capture the light from your wonderful dreams
and paint them into something-
paint them into being!
think of a sparrow, blending in to their surroundings
and then flying away like a bird set free
when something approaches
you aren't a sparrow, you weren't meant to let your dreams fly away
at the nearest sign of danger
if they must fly, fly with them.
Words cannot describe how you feel
you feel too big, you are too tuned in to this world
the world has not yet created the words to explain
the big way you feel
so
eavesdrop at doors
nod your head only after you've decided
no IS an answer you get to consider
you will one day get to have a meeting of souls
and when it happens, take your dreams with you
let them flourish and NEVER let anyone tell you
that they're unrealistic
unrealistic fantasies aren't impossible.
But you know this
for you are wise beyond your years,
wise beyond your words.
