If I Were in Charge of the World

If I were in charge of the world,

polar bears would be pets,

cupcakes would be a suitable dinner,

and springtime would be year-round.

If I were in charge of the world,

fairy tales would be real,

every girl would be a princess,

every boy a prince,

and they really would live happily ever after,

the dreams that you dreamed could come true.

If I were in charge of the world,

the stars would shine brighter every night,

raindrops would taste like gumdrops,

and rainbows would liven up the sky even without a drop of rain.

If I were in charge of the world,

life would be simple again.

The Conflict

Life has its twists,

the ones that leave you in pieces,

worn-out and small.

Questions, surprises, the unknown.

At times you feel broken,

sightless.

There is nothing left for you in the past,

but where is the future?

Your soul is searching,

but for what?

Confused again, wondering,

There are locks on your heart,

knives in your back,

you need to be patched up,

but HOW?

Picture the good things,

friends and memories to get through,

and you might find it,

Shining.

 

Change

You show some promise,

of leaving things all secure,

It thunders, burns into your mind, your soul.

Life is the plot,

something dreamed for.

Acceptance.

Everyone became important,

stop the breath and bring life.

They were simply a part of my life,

simply all that I am.
