Idea Man

am an idea man
But they’ve been trapped in there far too long
I want to let them out
And give them life out on their own

But they’ve been with me forever
And I don’t want to say goodbye
They’ve been my best friends
And stayed with me my whole life

I want to repay the loyalty
But I know that isn’t fair
Some of them would survive quite well
In a world of mediocrity

So I transpose them from my head
And consider what I am doing
I smirk one last time and look into the fog
I set their sail and I turn away

I better create some new friends
Now I write but they never write back
I feel as though I’m lost
There’s no one else to create until I dream some more
