Breakout - Poem
Sometimes when I want to write a poem and I don't have a concrete concept to work with, I just turn on some instrumental music, open up my notepad and see if any ideas float in to my brain, allowing me to spontaneously build up a poem from scratch.
This poem is case in point. I was interested in finding some new soft ambient music playlists, (some of you may know I enjoy listening to them) to see if any of the titles of the compositions will give me any sort of springboard to work with.
I stumbled across a certain piece of music which I enjoyed, and as a small concept began formulating itself in my head I began to write whatever words or lines I thought of. However, as I was writing, another idea came to me, and I decided to work with that one instead.
You may have already guessed but it is this poem right here, which I titled "Breakout" and it is yet another one of my many poems that focuses on achieving the dreams in your heart, no matter what the world thinks.
I have also designed a graphic poster for this piece, which you can access here
I hope you like it.
Best Wishes,

Breakout - Poem
People like to tell me,
My head is in the clouds,
They laugh, hurt and insult me,
As they seek to pull me down.
They don't see the world through my eyes,
Ignore the beauty in what I find beautiful,
But that doesn't matter,
Because at least to myself, I am being truthful.
If you share my vision,
I welcome you to ride with me,
As we break out of our boxes,
Out of these chains of normality,
Lets release our powers,
Lets splash our colors on the wall,
Make a positive difference,
As we answer the worlds call.
It is only a dream,
Says those who know not,
Of the power that lies within us,
Of the fire in our hearts,
Justice will be sweet, oh, it will be ours to taste,
But one never reaches the finish line,
Buy not riding in the race.
If you share my vision,
I welcome you to ride with me,
As we break out of our boxes,
Out of these chains of normality,
Lets release our powers,
Lets splash our colors on the wall,
Make a positive difference,
As we answer the worlds call.
