I’ve spent a long time searching
Yet I’m still not drawing near
That blissful, happy kingdom
About which much I hear.
They say there’s no more fighting there,
No hurting, no more pain.
And even though I’m wondering
I’m searching still again.
Cause it seems it must be worth it
If it’s waiting there somewhere
To keep hopefully searching
While doubting that it’s there.
I guess I’ll never find it,
At least, that’s how it seems,
Cause I’m searching through reality
And it’s only there in dreams.

Suthern.....reality is for people who can't face fantasy. Search in the dreams...it's a much nicer place.

This is great! I live to create, imaginations are a Godsend, but still, there is happiness in this world.

"It's better to travel hopefully than to arrive" Maybe that is what the search is about. Being able to write so well is a step on the way to that kingdom.
