Story Time In The Land Of Good and Evil

Free form writings work in progress

So, I guess what they say is true...

We accept the love we think we deserve

Cuz I was born a self-assured hopeless romantic with a fondness for the stars and recklessness

They say settle for money, for looks, for convenience

But you know what they say about opinions

And I could never get comfortable in people with no soul, so predictable

It's hard to snuggle up to beige when you've dreamed of a love so irreplaceable

When did being cool with being complacent become a thing?

We were born of the same star, you and I 

We are so much more than the actions of one life

So much more than what we're condemned to

And brace yourself honey... I want you

In the dream of eternity I'll write our story for the world to see

You remember that time we swallowed our pride?

Broke off our chains and crossed these lines?

Took these wills of ours to fruition?

Told a story so strong it shook nations?

Nah, me neither, but I'm not giving up so easily

Cuz there's this story in my head that won't secede

And it echos of you, only shadows of what could be

Or what once was before?

Say it will be again, so much more than this

Maybe if I can get it all down we wouldn't be living like this

In a world full of mediocrity, I know what's worth fighting for

Just say the word

Let me tell you a story...

Brilliant, but where to begin? Money, looks, convenience, beige, can be replaced with what passes for talent these days and our ideas of what it is, like the poor people who are fooled into believing they can sing, only to be mocked in front of a live audience of millions every week, or the vanity of consumerism replacing the need for the happiness of true contentment.
Don't let those echoes fade. It can be trodden on and crushed, but that only makes success all the sweeter when it comes. free form seems to agree with you Sarah. When I find that happening, I usually take note of where I was and what I was doing, and try to intentionally recreate the freedom felt in the flow.

Thank you... Jamming out to 90s and 2000s emo, rock, alternative as load as humanly possible and compiling personalities for a novel I'm reworking.... Oh and coffee, lots of coffee with brief dance intermissions while contemplating my favorite hopes and dreams.
