I dream of a world where we no longer think suffering is a prerequiste for happiness

I dream that I can stroll through crime ridden streets no longer fearing savageness

I dream that I can tell you I am 115 pounds of insecurity, that thinks you will laugh at her dreams of rapping

I dream your eyes loose their jealousy while your hands are clapping

I dream to not fear falling in love
Because wolves have made it into a word most girls know nothing of

I dream the world in my head comes to life
And instead of keeping me awake, the world is seen in a new light

I dream I don't have anxiety about who I am
Because everyone already knows me, and I am finally my own biggest fan

I dream my children can actually know the truth about the world they live in
Instead of comfortably accepting a veil that's too thin

I dream our freedom can exist without having to be defended
I dream that one day people won't be so in love with the idea of being offended

I dream that eventually another pair of eyes will fall on me for the first time the way yours did
and also give them the knowledge that they will love me someday, but they will already know how to forgive

I dream we can outgrow these devices that connect us through disconnection

I dream when I open my physical mailbox inside lies a letter expressing one's truest affection

I dream, larger and with more fury than any other dream, for the moment when everyone realizes being happy starts with just being...happy

I dream for fear of waking
