I wanna break free

from reality.
Spread my wings

and forget these things.
Take my mind away

but let my imagination stay.
Take away their lies

and their twisted ties.
Let me soar
and give me energy more and more.

I wrote this poem in my fourth hour class, I was thinking of how i wanted to break free from what everyone thought was "real" For once in my life, I wanted to see EVERYTHING.
