Welcome to this world of fantasy,
where nothing you see or hear is actually real.
You can do or say anything you want,
and share with everyone exactly how you feel.
No need to say everything is fine,
as your own world is falling completely apart.
Comfortable you never have to hide,
those shattered pieces of your broken heart.
Days are free of depression or tears,
behind you times of feeling helpless and alone.
Serenity seems endless when you look,
seeing the friends and people you have known.
Everyone's arms embracing once again,
feeling safe with no longer any reason to hide.
Family differences have been settled,
gone are the hurt feelings and any false pride.
Free of the aches and pain you had,
knowing you will make it through another day.
You will listen to the bluebirds sing,
and watch as the young children are at play.
No violence, fighting or wars to fear,
calm days full of happiness and peace of mind.
Taking quite strolls beside a stream,
leaving any of your troubles and cares behind.
A lovely pallette of flowers in bloom,
swaying gently from another nice cool breeze.
All reason gone to be rushed anymore,
even the animals resting nearby seem at ease.
Take an angel's hand and walk slowly,
to the glorious heavens and stars high above.
Where no one will ever think bad of you,
and all hearts are filled with pure unselfish love.
You see this world of fantasy is real,
and paradise is truly waiting for all living souls.
When you walk through heaven's gates,
and look upon the streets paved of pure gold.
