My Mind

	My Mind

	It's not easy to get into one's self
	Chances are
	You can't.

	You know
	The mind is a beautiful thing,
	and to open it, is even more beautiful

	I crawled into my mind the other day
	And found a collage
	It was full of colors and thoughts
	Some good
	Some better

	To be,
	To think,
	To live,
	That's where it's all at

	But people don't.
	They spend their time in dreams and wishes
	If people would only open their minds
	and be things
	and do things
	They waste their time dreaming about
	They too would find beauty'

	Be what you want
	Do what you want
	Open your mind and let it expand

	I did,
	And now I'm alive
	Not just existing from day to day
	But really alive

	The mind is a beautiful thing
	Crawl into yours one day.
