By Aditya Desai, Year 9
I can be whatever you want me to be.
I can take the form of many things.
Should you want me to change, I will change.
Deep within your mind, the endless void: that is me.
The void can change to fit your desires.
The void is your imagination.
I can become anything, whether it is real or not.
Let me show you some:
Unicorns, dragons, gnomes, beasts of legend…
All are things I can become.
People compare me to water,
For I am able to fit into any container.
I will forever adapt within your mind,
For I am your imagination.
There are those who dream grand dreams –
Dreams as vast as the morning sky.
You might be one of those people.
Never stopping once to doubt whether something is achievable,
Letting me become your eyes – the eyes that see the future.
For that is my purpose here.
I am your imagination.
Large forests of twisting trees,
Embraced by darkness and sorrow.
Endless expanses of sea,
Gently shone upon by the Sun above.
Endless tunnels in which people scream –
People reunited with their loved ones.
I have seen it all in your sleep,
For I am your imagination.
I can be bizarre. I can be wonderful.
I can be whatever you want me to be.
I will never stop adapting, and
Giving you what you desire.
And I will never fail to be there for you in your time of need.
For I am your imagination.
