Open Eyes

In the calming noise of the whispering oaks,

by the sea of tranquility, under the stars of a

thousand hearts beating.

Dreaming and wishing are for fools, so I am a fool.

I am a hopeless being in a hopeless world.

It is not what will happen but what could happen

that is my driving force of living.

All of my hopes are built upon each other,

like the waves crashing onto the shore.

One after another after another.

It is my perspective of the world that ruins people’s dreams,

and makes the fire burn bright in the souls of others.

The demons they steal my soul,

and leave my heart in pieces,

angels fly above, but never land.Leaving me desperate.

The world is my cage. The people, my guards.

Never to be free, never to let go.

Shackled at every point in iron so strong not

even the power of love can set me free.

But, always about, when I am in my realm of dreams,

and you are by my side,

reality disappears,

and my dreams come true.

My fantasies come alive, and my eyes open,

all of the beauty that hides above the clouds

makes my soul fly, and my heart open,

Liber,

Tandem.
