My Eyes Are Widely Open

In light of my own imagination
I am drawn to the natural existence 
that beauty possesses within my very mind
Creating a view of the desire to be one
To have freedom
To have the choice between what is right and wrong
To live in a life where I have a positive outlook among myself
Where the world does not revolve around material possessions
I am me
I am able to go on in life and know that I made a choice
The choice to live the best I can for the reality of the woman I am
The one that has the desire to create, to dream, to imagine
The times of past flow away and I settle in the moments
of the realization that life is too short
I shall cherish what I have in the moment
And the future will look brighter ahead amongst the horizon 
in which I see through clear eyes of intellectual realization.
