Picture perfect
I close my eyes
Count to three
I see my life
The way I dream
The hope I can’t explain
The little kernel of belief
The one spot fear hasn’t taken over
I open my eyes and reality strikes
In this pitch black
I am everything I always wanted
You are everything I ever wanted
The dreams never come true
Not the way I want them to
But
This faith building slowly in me
Causes me to think
That one day reality will lose this dance
That my life will be better than
I could ever imagine
