Imagine Out Loud

Author's note: Sometimes I'll listen to a song on repeat while writing a poem or story, and thats what I did with this one. This poem's inspired by the song "Alligator Sky" by Owl City (click here to listen on youtube).  It's from a month or two back. One of my personal favorites :D enjoy...

I imagine with my eyes open

Open up your mind to the possibilities

Possibilities of open opportunities

Opportunities of pure imagination

Imagine out loud

Remember to imagine

Imagine the mountains

Mountains that rise out of the desert

Desert civilization and let yourself be free

Free of the earth that holds us down

Down from fascination

Let the rockets come to life

Life that will carry you to the moon

And back

Back to the telescopes that

Send your eyes off into space

Space filled with imagination

Fall from the sky on

The rollercoaster that will carry you

Feel the wind on your face

That will take your breath away

Away from your body and mind

Filled with captivation

Remember to breath

Cause the probabilities are endless

And you you’ll be filled

With the thrill of the clouds above

Your head will spin with imagination

Of the world beyond us

Dive in headfirst

First to the bottom of the ocean

All the way to China you will find

The world as you never knew it

Animate your mind

With the captivation of

The life we live

Live like fire burns

As bright as the stars in the sky

Remember to laugh

Cause there is so much to love

To live for

For the fruits and trees

That sprout from the ground

Like magic

Fall into the sky

Let time stop

Take a look

At the picture you see

See the life around you

Frozen

Remember to love
Cause the possibilities are endless

In a perpetual state of fascination

Accomplishments are rewarded

With boundless opportunities

You can

Imagine out loud

PS: I just remembered: I was writing this poem while driving through the middle of nowhere in California (we were on our way to a ski resort over winter break) and basically we were just surrounded by mountains and desert.
