Alexander Robbins

Shut-Eye World


This world is filled with anger and hate,
So come and take this dangling bait,
Travel to my world of happiness and love,
Where bombs are not flying but instead are doves.
 
The water there is crystal clear,
And no one ever has any fear,
Of failure in any shape or form,
Where people here are lost and forlorn.

So come with me and see it true,
The skies are the bluest of blue,
As difficult as it may seem,
All you have to do is dream.
