I’m bored
I don’t want to be here
Can you take me somewhere new?
Somewhere away from here?
It doesn’t have to be far
Just something different
Something realistic
Or maybe something magical
Can I meet someone new?
A hero, or a villain?
Or someone in between?
What is their story?
Do they have the perfect life
Or are they troubled?
I want to explore somewhere new
Is there magic in this place?
Technology we haven’t heard of back home?
Or is it set back
Many years ago?
I just need a break
From the real world
Only for a little while
Until I’m pulled back to reality
Or have read to the end of your story
Whichever comes first
