I rather close my eyes
And fall asleep
Then look at this world
Because I know I cannot save it
I rather dream in a nightmare
Then become one of them
In real life
Why should I fall awake?
When I can fall asleep
And dream of a beautiful place
Where nothing bad could happen?
Where nothing could be tainted
Where children never grew
Where mommies and daddies would never fight
Where birds and worms alike
Could live in harmony
Never to see their blood
Or another’s blood
And sleep forever in their dreams
in my dream of a wonderland
