Wonder

I wonder what it’s like, to live, not just survive,
I wonder what it’s like, to truly thrive.
And I wonder what it’s like, to wake (no gasps or cries),
Oh, I wonder what it’s like to dream with a smile

Why can’t we live free from judging eyes?
Why can’t we just live life, no need for disguise?
Why must we feel this pain, from a world that divides?
A world where some must fight, while others just decide

Wish we were dancing in the sunrise, with our arms up high,
Feeling blessed and so divine, with no tears in our eyes.
Oh, together, I’m sure we all wonder...

What it’s like, to live a safe life,
Free from fear and free from strife.
What it’s like, to hold our heads high,
And step into the light, no shadows in our minds.

Why can’t we just be free, and let our spirits fly?
Why must we be judged by our DNA’s lack of ‘Y,’
While others are free to live without asking why?
Why can’t we just live life, with love in our eyes

Why can’t we walk into the night without a fear?
Why must some of us feel like we’re not even here?
Why must we be judged by our DNA’s lack of ‘Y,’
While others are free to live without asking why?

And above all I wonder                                                                                                                                                                                          what it’s like, to live in the light,
To finally feel safe and to be held tight,                                                                                                                                                                    in a world where love never dies.
