You must have those days
where things don’t make sense
When you turn on the news
to the next crazy story
Feel like you’re underwater
Like all of it is just a dream
And for that you must agree that
sometimes life is stranger than fiction

If you held a mirror to the sky,
captured all the stars
The way they dance in the darkness
Reflect the immensity of the Moon
and the way it shines so bright
A celestial beauty to be adored,
nothing more stunning to be captured

I can never remember my dreams,
they’re just a blur of vagueness
But I always remember the nightmares,
the ones that have my heart racing
and wake me up at 2am
Scenes play out on repeat in my head
and follow me around like a cloud of darkness
When nighttime returns I have to hope
that it doesn’t follow me back into sleep
Because I cannot take
waking up with that same dread

It’s in my favourite outfit
Eyeshadow in vibrant colours
Cute earrings, fun hairstyles
Shoes I could stomp in you with
That’s where I find my power

As I sit here
Pyjamas and no makeup
I feel the complete opposite
You could chip away
till I’m all gone

Do you ever stop and think
to admire the beauty of nature
Plants mimic the brightest colours,
their leaves perfectly positioned
They mirror shapes and movements,
dance under dappled sunlight

Let’s just go
Planes, trains, and automobiles
Leave with no set plan

Those places in your dreams
and ones you’ve never even thought of
We can see them all

Visit the warmest beaches
Oceans as blue as your eyes,
then we’ll draw hearts in the sand

Make memories that we’ll recall for years,
heads filled with stories
Pictures of sunsets

Put your trust in the journey
Take a chance
Leave behind old motions

Take the wishbone
Break in two
Clinging on
as if it’s the last hope
Pinning dreams on the snap
Eyes shut tight
Secret wish
to make sure it comes true
Because it will come true
It has to come true
Everything was in
that wishbone
