I want

I want

A Poem by The Outlaws' Song
"

Hmm..a childish thought...

"

 

I want to paint the sky in red
I wanna take away the clouds
In snowdrops to turn the dread
Instead of stars to put a smile.
 
I want to fill the world with joy
To turn the hate into our bliss
Putting all demons in a toy
To turn the nightmares in a kiss.
 
I want to turn the tears in diamonds
And all the fears in many lions
I wanna make the laughter be a wont
And tears of joy be shed with billions
 
I’d turn the sinners in believers
I’d turn all people in magicians
Burdens in wings - I’d twist’em so
And color black I’d make a rainbow.
 
I want to turn the wounds in scars
So they remind us we were wrong
Eventually I’d make them stars
The wrong path to be reminded from above.

The altered English is almost stylistic here and the piece still reads well. I like the meanings you were going for. The end is with a sobering note which brings us to a pause.

I love the symbols you use. I also enjoy the end and how you would keep the scars to always remind.
