The Soft Embrace of Forever

All you want is to dream-
Dream until the reality fades
Into fairydust camouflaged
By the brilliance of a tree's shade-
You could lie in solitude,
You could smile at the sane sky
And you could marvel the velocity of the wind
But you couldn't escape, on the sly
This world.
The iron bars of the cages that trap you
Have become dusted in rust
And though your cage extends for miles
Escape has become a must;
You could sit here and be happy
Like this crowd of billions that surrounds you,
Or you could jump and face the bars
And rise about what you've learnt is true!
If they'd told you that the sky's the limit
You could strive for infinity and what's beyond,
If they've held you to the earth too long,
You could leap until you break the bond.
You could strive for so much more
Beyond your superhuman capabilities
I believe that you're above the world
So use your insane abilities.
All you want is to dream-
Dream until the reality fades
But now you can make it real.
You're beyond us by decades.
