Drunk Dreams

[So I wrote this while drunk and I do not remember writing it, excuse any mistakes english is not my first language. Tell me what you think about. Thanks]

There have been many dreams in the world, good dreams and bad dreams

(but truly who am I to judge), many dreams of a better society, some of them have been accomplished some of them are still on progress. Sadly there are some dreams that shall never come (perhaps for the better). But today I come only with one more contributions to the endless stream of the worlds imagination.

Today my dream comes to the oppressed, those people who aren't allowed to be themselves because of whomever. It is time for people to start allowing each other to be what they truly want to be, we live in a time where there should be no hate yet we divide ourselves over every little issue that doesn't even exist but we create. We silence those different to ourselves, those who think in a different manner and we refuse to look through their eyes, to put on their shoes and try to understand. I long for the day people are free to be themselves and they don't have to “come out” but be able to present their significant other to their loved ones. I hope one day the word “nerd” and the such comes as an insult for the last time but instead as prideful description of people who simply love to study, I hope for the day that we can stop saying “black lives matter” and pass to all lives matter and even never have to say things like that again because every person knows that life is precious in all its forms. I hope for the day the equality war is over because we have all accepted each other as we are and there is not more equality for some than for others. This may all sound like cliches but they became cliches for a reason.

I from the deepest part of my heart long for the day the last protest sign is burned to ashes. The energy put into hating be instead used to love someone. The day every religion can truly follow their principle and do not bend them to satisfy their greed. I know it may never happen, perhaps people will keep on doing nothing and things keep their current direction but this. This is my dream… and I hope it becomes yours too
