The blood pumping
through my veins
or the thoughts
that can’t escape my brain.
-What is it
that makes me believe
that the world around me
isn’t all that it seems?
I look beyond
what’s plain to see
and open my eyes
to what could be.
So many others
hold their eyes closed
and to what I know,
they’ll never be exposed.
Keeping their vision
planted too firmly in reality
restrains their growth
and erases their morality.
For all they see
is all the cruelty,
what’s real, set in concrete-
instead of all the possibilities.
