World of Limitations

The fear keeps most in,
a fear of the outside world.
The world they know nothing of,
as most don't want to know.
The masses are happy
to live in the bubble
but one soul must wonder
if the dream is worth the trouble.

He does not cower
to the potential prospect
of the danger ahead
that he may erect.
He knows that anything
out there could be better
than living this life
strapped with a fetter.
He cannot be trapped
within walls of imaginations
as the hidings presented
seem to point to damnations.
Others can be content
living their lie
but he will not
idly stand by.
He will fight
for dreams outside
of a comfort zone created
by a panel under a corporate disguise.

A dreamer's world
is what they seek
but cannot be found
by an onlooker's view so bleak.
It takes creativity
and the passion
to drive through the surface
in a forceful fashion.
It takes a will
unmatched by others
to expose the lies
told to one another,
yet this exposure
is not for the sake
of proving the establishment wrong
despite their agendas so fake.
The reason this dreamer
must uncover the lies
is to prove
to his own eyes
that there is so
much more to strive
to accomplish
while still alive.
This dreamer will
continue the pursuit
to live a dream
others count as moot.
The drive will not
any time soon be finished
until this dream
is a reality accomplished.

Restrictions

I hear your requests
and am not ignoring them by any stretch,
but you must realize
these restrictions put me in a game of go-fetch.
You telling me how to do things
in a way that limits who I am
is nothing but a wall of limitations
that changes me into a lifeless man.
You tell me my words do not rhyme
and that the scheme is not right
despite the fact you have not read
my life yet in the light.
You sit in the pitch black
where you are on your high chair
that shows you nothing of reality,
not as if you would show a care.
You live by this imaginary rule book
that tells you what to do or say
despite the fact you are the author
of this fantasy life to show you the way.
My only request is that you leave me
to do things the way I see fit
as I know what I am doing I this regard
and need nothing less than for you to drag me into your pit.
