Dreams are yours
Color them as you like
Vibrant hues of the world
Are on your palette
Paint a rainbow
Or, rainbows over rainbows
Look up at the sky
Lots of colors
And explore what lies beyond
Over the rainbows
And head held high

Things can't always be the
way we want them too,
and I'm trying to fall
in love with this idea
that no matter what
I end up doing with my life,

it wouldn't have
really mattered anyways.

i've been thinking,
about the clouds up high
about the bright blue sky
about pie--just a slice
about everything nice

i've been thinking,
about true love
about courage--kind of
about happiness
about first kiss

i've been thinking,
that you don't need everything
to live your life,
that you don't need everything
to make you happy

We lived,
we breathed our childhood
like runaway trains,
hid our pains in frivolous antics,
created fantastic fantasy worlds.

Some of us were kings
others queens,
still others princes & princesses.
And we did not know excess,
pushing the limits of our existence,
insisting we were real
humans with real feelings,
only trampled on
by those we loved,
the ones we trusted the most.

And now
writing,
we are haunted by those ghosts
who ****** us.

Each step that you take
Walking away from the past
Tread the path where love resides
And garden where flowers bloom
Trust the call of the soul
Towards the direction of fresh breeze
As it will direct you towards safe haven

Right this moment
Is a lion
Asleep at some jungle
An elephant happily flapping its ears

Right this moment
Is a new mother
Cudddling away her little
Bundle of joy

Right this moment
Are beautiful flowers in a garden
Lovers looking deep into each others eyes
A homeless man whistling away

Right this moment
The world is a beautiful place.
