Utopia

    we'd gather around all in a room
    fasten our belts engage in dialogue
    we'd all slow down rest without guilt
    not lie without fear disagree sans jugement

    we would stay and respond and expand and include
    and allow and forgive and enjoy and evolve
    and discern and inquire and accept and admit
    and divulge and open and reach out and speak up

    this is utopia this is my utopia
    this is my ideal my end in sight
    utopia this is my utopia
    this is my nirvana
    my ultimate

    we'd open our arms
    we'd all jump in
    we'd all coast down into safety nets

    we would share and listen and support and welcome
    be propelled by passion not invest in outcomes
    we would breathe and be charmed and amused by difference
    be gentle and make room for every emotion

    this is utopia this is my utopia
    this is my ideal my end in sight
    utopia this is my utopia
    this is my nirvana
    my ultimate

    we'd provide forums
    we'd all speak out
    we'd all be heard
    we'd all feel seen

    we'd rise past-obstacle more defined more grateful
    we would heal be humbled and be unstoppable
    we'd hold close and let go and know when to do which
    we'd release and disarm and stand up and feel safe

    this is utopia this is my utopia
    this is my ideal my end in sight
    utopia this is my utopia
    this is my nirvana
    my ultimate
