I Can Imagine

I can imagine a great many things polka dot pandas with gigantic wings a world without war, a day without death even the moment I take my last breath Fabulous planets of purple and pink a moment of peace where I don't have to think soaring through skies in fast flying cars that take you way up to the most distant stars Being a king in a castle so grand high on a hill overlooking the land stretching as far as the eye can see yes, that is the sort of life for me Vanquishing dragons, defying the odds placing myself above the gods limitless power and riches galore and I can imagine so much more Being a handsome prince on my horse rescuing maidens from danger, of course never to die or even grow old at least, that's the ending I've always been told Crystalline rivers with water so sweet never an evil person to meet orange and violet trees so high the tops disappear into the sky Yes I can envision so very much magical singing flowers and such just about anything my mind can see but I cannot imagine you loving me

I smiled until the very end. That last line made me sad. Tugged at my heart. Nicely written!

Thank u! Yeah, I don't always go for the traditional happy ending. But I actually did have someone in mind when I wrote this. Thanks for stopping by! Happy New Year Valerie! :)

So beautiful and tender. The images you paint are truly breathtaking, and then- the end. My heart paused. This touched all of my emotions so deeply. ~ Brandy
