Imagination
The stranger that comes when you day dream,
Secret weapon that quenches loneliness,
A friend that makes you despise friends,
The god that makes you govern an ocean of thought.
The birth of imagination compromised your destiny,
An helper that lures you into crime,
A perfect artist with a stolen talent,
The creator with an heartless ambition.
Great walls with colourful bricks,
Blind subjects under a golden king,
A drunken god ruling a sober nation,
The guider of the mind but destroyer of the future.
A secret admirer with selfish desire,
An endless movie with coded actor,
The abstract empire with real people,
Don’t lust for imagination it’s just a created prank.
