I Am... An Idealist
I am an idealist
Always dreaming
Always searching
For something better
For something real
Often too disconsolate to continue
And too fearful to perish
Waking up has become harder
As I've found more satisfaction asleep
Than I ever have awake
But I'm still searching
Trying to be a person worth writing about
A person who knows herself
I felt disconnected
So I hid and turned to stone
Now I'm breaking my walls
And growing branches
