The Vanishing World

I close my eyes and hope to see

A world that’s waiting there for me

A world that I can call my own

The world of pain that’s known to me

Just vanishes away for while

And for those few moments

I can be who I want to be

People who’ve vanished from my live

Many who are no longer alive

Or have moved on to better lives

Find a way back to me

They may have vanished from my world

But here they will always be

One with me for all eternity

The world that doesn’t accept me

Cause I may not be 

The way they want me to be

Vanishes for those moments

And in those brief moments

I can be the way I want to be

That’s true and honest to me

A society that looks down on me

That always tries to label me

And pokes fun at me

Judges me for I choose to be

The way that I am 

For who I choose to care for, to love

Who I choose to settle down with

In those moment this society vanishes

And I am part of the world 

That accepts me the way I want to be

But then I have to open my eyes

And return back to a world I’ve known

While the world I’ve dreamed of

Vanishes from my eyes

To remain a figment of my mind

But always with a hope 

That one day I’ll find a world 

that’s meant for me

And will never let it vanish from me
