Behind The Words

  

Behind the imagination

Is a man who still believes

In childhood dreams.

 

Behind the thoughts

Is a man living outside the box

Of society’s making.

 

Behind the beliefs

Is a man hanging onto faith

In humanity.

 

Behind the passion

Is a man who always sees love

As our greatest strength.

 

Behind the words

Is just a simple man living

In a complex world.

 

Behind the words

It’s just me.

Wow.. great inspiration can be found in simplicity.. sometimes we just have to let go of the facade.. say who cares what others think.. and be true to our own hearts and happiness! This is a great tribute to being that young child dreamer.. good or bad. Love the emotions and free spirit flowing through this. Staying in between the lines of society's expectations can really bring a soul down.. you can start to feel lost and out of place. I am not saying go out and break laws.. but play in the rain.. be yourself!!! Thank you so much for sharing! =)
