The Place Id Like To Be

June 7, 2016

Despair and famine

Litter and grief

Lately, in this world,

The devil seems to be chief

Bullying and cheating

Divorce and unhappiness

This is all that I see

I’d like to share with you the place I’d like to be

I’d like to be in my own personal Narnia

A place that exists just for me

Where the only emoticon is a smiley

And stings didn’t exist, not even in a bee

Unicorns roam the meadows, the sun shines high in the sky

The only slaps are playful ones, the best time of day is the night

Stars gleam down at the stargazers, when we jump we feel so light

When the bats fly under the moon, it’s shining ever so bright

But there can’t be light without the dark,

So we’ll have to wait and see

If this dream of mine will come to life

Or exist merely as the place I’d like to be.
