colors

i need to dream
not just the kind in your sleep
but the one t hat could lift you up
from the mires of misery

but for some reason though
i couldn't find the colors
that can draw the picture
of how i want my life to be

do blue skies really mean peace
or silver linings really hide behind the clouds?
do rainbows really appear after the rain
or sun shines as bright as the hope in my heart?

i wish so hard every night
that the morning will be a fresh start
where i can plan the future
with a lightness in my being
