You head up to see the world

Standing on your pile of broken memories

To stare at the dreams falling from the sky

Like fallen stars too selfish to grant a wish

.

Hearts beat with secret desires

Scrambling on earth’s surface

While you stand above enlightened

By the pain that haunts your eyes

.

You have been were they are

Defiant and confused

Scrapping nails across windows

Wondering why they’re not broken

.

Yet you opened your mind

To believes you once mocked

And in silence you realized

That even life needs acceptance

.

You found your place to belong

Knowing what others did not

You saw death and smiled

Greeting him like a long lost friend

.

There used to be no understanding

As you cried and screamed at injustice

The unfairness of your perceived world

Where lies danced along souls

.

But you found your view to be wrong

As you saw beyond your opinions

And you knew all you’d called a lie

Was only the truth you refused to accept
