We Can Still Dream
WE CAN STILL DREAM
“In a world where the stakes are higher”
We can still dream of living a calm existence
and know that when it comes time to say farewell
we can grin and take our memories with us to
where there is a heavenly paradise waiting for us
where there are no risks but love and all are similar
accepted and included.
So, in a world where the stakes are higher
why can’t every person be susceptible to compromise
in all regards and never prompt others to dislike them
nor for that matter turn around and despise those who
they caused to hate them?
Why can’t relations be had with out any kind of meddling
With out ruse and even with out duplicity of any kind
especially if one person has a child who needs more than
training and actually needs aid which a lone parent
might never be able to give? - for that matter why can’t
we all trust each other despite the conviction that some
citizens of this planet are not as honest as the rest of
us? – We can still fantasize, but why is that all we can
do?
