Land of Make Believe

By Riverette

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I don't need to dream to see This wonderful world in front of me It's there for everyone although they may not know Blinded by their own pity and woe So they find a new way to open their eyes They reach for some drugs and they improvise It takes them away so they can finally find This magical place, buried deep in their mind They're always so happy, and I envy them for that But I have no reason too, where they are, I'm at They needed drugs while I got here alone And I found this make believe land, all on my own But there is a difference between these two lands One discovered accidentally, the other one planned And most importantly, their land is fake Just a simple charade, make no mistake My land is different and it is my ideal Because my land of make believe is 100% real Written March 1st, 2001 © on Jan 05 2002 04:26 PM PST    0 • 10
