Lost in a world where it is said that “dreams never die”...

Born to fly

Born to soar and touch the sky

But me myself and I stumbled upon such a diabolical lie ages ago

Back then as I sat back and watched my story unfold

I realized how these feelings of betrayal arose

Since then

It has bothered me every night until morning light.

It still bothers me now…

How easily those falsified facts took hold…

They never expect you to break free from their needs

Once you realize their evil deed came from a long line of greed

Once you finally do succeed from those needs and then uncover your want you realize...

It's our right to do with our time as we like

After all

It's  o u r  one  and only life

And when this is realized

Our own dreams...

Finally get underlined and put in bolding rather than society's needs as these poetic lines keep going...

And these worldly words keep the literary paint flowing

As we paint a picture of our own free but distant future

Then

Now

And always

Our very own art upon this piece of paper

On which we titled: Poetry
